Sergio Ballivian Reporting From...

I am like a sail that is buffeted by the wind, with no clear direction, no guiding light, but as often as I despair about some things, the winds usually take me to where I needed to go, whether I knew it or not. So far, life's been pretty good, considering all the ups and downs. The measure of my success (my personal wealth) is the accumulation of my life's experiences, not my money...thus, I am a rich man. I hope you enjoy the photos and the story telling. If you become a 'follower" you can get automatic updates, it's the easiest way to take a mental break and enjoy some photos for a few minutes.
