Back to normal life.
Its been some days of disconnection from the real world in New York. I needed to escape for a minute from Barcelona, and be able to be cold, really cold, walk, eat and shop by myself.
In this trip, I even managed to meet with some friends during my… as Julio said “exhile”, so I havent been that lonely at all.
Kike was in NYC to film for an upcoming Nike6.0 project we are putting together with the spanish surf team. He came to the city with a mission, to spend $3000 on a fisheye, for his already super-heavy HD Panasonic camera. So after a B&H visit, he just got an even heavier fisheye to film in HD, with panoramic view.
This beast weighted like a ton. Unreal. I told him he should begin lifting weights to have his arm ready for hours of skateboard filming madness, as he’s already in another filming mission, this time, being Tenerife (Canary Islands), his destination, with the skate team this time.
These days I have been able to do many things. One of these being exploring different restaurants. One of them was this japanese place in St.Marks, in the Soho area (Kind of). I don´t remember the name of it, I shot a picture of the chopsticks where you can get the adress and call them. It surpirsed me some of the stuff I found in there, like this toilet writing….
And to this amazing restaurant, I attended with friends… friends I had staying at my Barcelona house days ago (Bread and Butter, you know the deal). And here we were, in NYC, while Chad decides if hes getting his favorite food… One thing I have been thinking these days is how small the worlds turns when you travelling. Amenities like the blackberry, or the internet, with Facebook and all those “Im doing this and that” updates, make the feeling of coming back home dissapear. Is like you dont have that many things to tell your family and/or friends. Anyways, Chad is from L.A, stayed at my house in Barcelona, and we met in NYC for lunch and shopping. Amazing.
…Karen (Soon to be the lawyer we all will be using to handle U.S affaires) and Chad, while Chad is trying to order the “Bull penis” as a desert…
Besides the amazingly dish offer, the menu was adorned by great drawings…
And in the unreal world… how does it sound to visit a dentist while being away from your city to relax, and you end up getting your teets cleaned and polished by the one and only Nosey from the Foreign Family familia?
So well, I ended up spending lot of time with this fool…
…and my fave new yorker(Chula vister)…
…sorry boo, I know you dont look really happy or sexy, but thats better for Manitas!
And my last piece of food while in NYC… “Isn´t it wonderful?” the guy serving us asked me “Yes… is good”.
