Corner View - número siete

This week theme is city landscapes or cityscapes or urban landscapes… pictures of your city… of the buildings that surround you… of the view from the top of a building …

Córdoba doesn´t have lots of tall buildings so the skyline is actually very low… almost flat… but in the background you have mountains… colorful mountains. I have always loved that contrast between the city and its surroundings…

I used to live in the 13th floor of a very tall building. This is the view from my old balcony.


When there´s a storm coming…


At sunset...


When there´s snow on the hills…

This is origami - Esto es origami




Me encanta el origami... de hecho todo mi trabajo de tesis como Licenciada en Artes partió del origami (sujeto a mudanza). Quizás es por eso que esta idea me encanta...

Un emboltorio vacío que es la misma cosa en su capacidad de transformarse. La pequeña bolsa se desarma y trae en sí misma las instrucciones para convertirse en un animalito. El dinero ganado con las bolsas se destina a defender a esos animales en extinción...
me encantó!

I love origami... in fact my tesis as a Licenciate in Arts started with origami (sujeto a mudanza). Maybe that is wy I like this idea...

An empty paperbag that becomes a paper toy in his hability to transform. The little bag contains the instruccions to become an animal. The money earned is destined to defend those animals in danger of extincion....
i love it!

I´m not one of those people who can decide between coffee and tea… I just can´t live without any of them!

I love coffee! The smell… the color… the taste…

I usually have mine with milk but when I make espresso at home I like it black… and hot!

I took some pictures of my vintage grinding machine. We bought it two years ago not only as a beautiful object, but to grind our daily coffee… of course it was too much work so we end up buying an electric machine…

I love the smell of the grain when it gets broken… all the house smells like coffee after grinding!

Enjoy it!

Corner View - número cinco

The province of Cordoba is filled with places where you can go camping, swimming, walking or just lay around in the fresh grass.

Last summer my husband and I spend a day in Cosquín, a city located at 50 km from Capital Córdoba. We took a train (called “tren a las sierras”) and enjoy the ride, taking pictures of the landscapes as the train passes though mountains and streams.






We pass through the San Roque Lake…


And end up in Cosquín River… were everyone else was swimming and enjoying the fresh water…

Quitapenas - Guatemalan worry dolls





Las compré hace poco por si me daba una pena grande que quisiera contar al oido de un pequeño pedazo de trapo...

Dentro de la cajita hay seis muñecas, una por cada día de la semana menos el domingo (en que descansan). 

Dentro de la cajita dice:

De acuerdo a la leyenda, los niños guatemaltecos le cuentan sus penas a cada muñeca cuando van a la cama por las noches y las guardan debajo de la almohada. En la mañana las muñecas se habrán levado lejos su pena...

I recently purchased these dolls in case I had a big sorrow that I would like to tell to a small piece of cloth.

Inside the little box are six dolls, one for each day of the week except for Sundays (when they rest).

There´s also a little paper that says:

According to legend Guatemalan children tell one worry to each doll when they go to bed at night and place the dolls under their pillow. In the morning the dolls have taken their worries away.

Corner View - Número cuatro (late but...)

This is a typical corner in Cordoba Downtown... the place where you can buy everything from clothes and shoes to food... and all you can think of. It´s a very wide area of the city where there are government buildings, historic places, and the financial and commercial district of the city.

Of course there are shopping centers and neighborhoods shops all over the city, but when you really need something you must go downtown were you will surely found it. So, if you ever come to Córdoba... be sure to book a hotel near downtown... is a must see!

Well... this is all for this week, a very busy week for me, with very little time to take interesting pictures of shopping places...

I promise you more for next week!
