Hace 10 años, espoleado por Jorge Russo @yorshrusso , emprendía un viaje de 5 semanas al otro lado del mundo: el Sudeste Asiático. Megalópolis, ruinas, templos, playas, ríos míticos, motos, mercados, aldeas coloniales, olores y sabores inéditos, puentes, frío, calor, barcas, motos y hasta aviones a hélice. Fue un viaje de descubrimiento permanente, incluso si una enorme cantidad de cosas que pasaban en nuestro entorno nos resultaban imposibles de traducir a nuestra cultura occidental. Un poco de Blade Runner y un poco de un mundo perdido. Ruido ensordecedor y silencio sepulcral. Sacamos muchas fotos, caminamos por valles y ciudades, nos hicimos trajes a medida, festejamos 15 años juntos. En el templo de Angkor Vat hice lo mismo que el protagonista de In the mood for love: le conté mi secreto a la piedra y lo sellé para toda la eternidad. Al regresar a casa dormí casi 24 horas seguidas sin parar. Al despertar, una de las primeras cosas que pensé fue que el mundo era un poco más pequeño de lo que pensaba. 1) Altorrelieve en templo Banteay Srey, Camboya. 2) Valle de Sapa, Vietnam. 3) Hotel Raffles, Singapur. 4) Un templo de Luang Prebang, Laos. 5) Hanoi nocturno, Vietnam. 6) Bangkok, Tailandia. 7) Templo de Angkor Vat, Camboya. 8) Ayuthaya, ruinas de la antigua capital del Reino de Siam, Tailandia. 9) Puente en Hoi An, Vietnam. 10) Riley Beach, Tailandia. #viajes #historia #sudesteasiatico #arquitectura #architecture #city #village #bridge #beach #sunset #southeastasia #thailand #vietnam #bangkok #luangprebang #angkorvat #ayuthaya #laos #sapa #travel #travelphotography #hanoi #2013 #art #ruinas #life #memories (en South East Asia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp1BEMIOjop/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
