I was with friends and we wanted to see the non-romantic and alternative side of the city. This picture is a portrait of the memories I have from my best holiday ever, and even though I haven’t had many superb holidays, because most of time I prefer visiting my family more than anything else, I have had some memorable ones.

For some time I had been quite disconnected from all society, I had already spent 6 months without a mobile. Back then I had started working for a telecommunications company and I had to be on the phone mostly all day long, and that's why I decided, in the end, to get rid of the #cell-phone".
