Modesty is a wonderful trait but I hope you realize how exceptional you are. I have no doubt that your future is bright no matter where you go. There are generations of worldly experience, perception, intelligence and humor that shine through you and your art, photography and writing. The many friends you have made in so many places will attest to that as we do.

Aquí, … too much wine… they tell me to stop writing you. But I decided that they can not stop me.
So I was thinking, if you draw a self portrait it would be perfect. Your drawings are beautiful, but just houses… your photos from Mexico ar e atonishing.. what about the combination?. Your self portrait,… technique and warm.
best luck

Love, love, love the pictures from the trip, especially the ones of Heda and Västervik 🙂 Made me homesick within 2 weeks of returning to Boston! Love your selection of photos from the various stops and looking forward to the upcoming places from the trip that no doubt will be posted.
Forwarded on your blog a while back, and several people have since noted how talented you are.
Kram, kram and see you soon, dear!
