Florence from a Room with a View

A Factotum, Florence, the Arno, the sky and a Villa that blossomed in a boutique hotel... And what inspires me, of course.

“I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.”  Mexican revolutionary leader Emiliano Zapata, whose Zapatista peasant army fought a long guerrilla campaign south of Mexico City.  This picture was taken in Mexico City in 1914, after the revolutionaries captured the capital.  However, the victors soon fell out, and Zapata allied with Pancho Villa against the liberal Constitutionalist faction.  He did die, assassinated in 1919, but still has an iconic legacy in Mexico today.

Abandoned mine carts in the beach of Piscinas. The whole area was part of the Ingurtosu mines, left abandoned in the late 60s and now an open-air industrial archaeology monument, with the old buildings and tools falling in ruins and left to rust in the middle of beautiful savage mountains and huge dunes. Does it sound awesome? It is.
