Sunset Park

2/3/2017

 
By Ahmed Latif

Sometimes you experience a big moment that stays with you for the rest of your life.  But a lot of times you experience a smaller moment that has a beauty to it yet it slips into a comfortable crevice in your mind and rests there.  But whenever you remember that moment, it comes out purring like a cat that is finally ready to give you some attention.

Paramaribo: City Of Colours

1/3/2017

 
By Anders Douglas-Svensson 

Paramaribo is simply known as the capital of Suriname, the last country on earth to lose its colonial status.  That is it.  That is so inadequate when compared to everything the city has to offer.  It is a small city, less than a million people, but it feels like a European city with its heavy dose of Dutch architecture.  Paramaribo is vastly diverse and the multiculturalism is so utterly vivid.  It is the kind of place where you can stand on one side of the street outside an old Dutch colonial building and smell rich Indian curry coming from across the street.  Paramaribo is untapped when it comes to discovery.  There are not a lot of cliché tourist hotspots; relatively few tourists visit the city at the northern edge of the South American rain forest.  So, everything is rather new and inimitable.

Luanda: City On The Rise

1/3/2017

 
By Antonio Mosquera

The first thing to notice in Luanda is the warm embrace of the African sun; it is blistering and the brightness overshadows everything in sight.  Tucked away in Africa is the little appreciated capital of Angola, Luanda.  Ripe from the end of a decades-long civil war, Luanda is a city on the rise.  Yet Luanda is so much more than a post-war capital, it tells so many tales and all of them are worth exploring.

Vienna: City Of Memories

1/3/2017

 
By Gabriel Zultanic 

When we envisioned this trip we wanted to feel the essence of each city, not as tourists or locals, but as wandering souls looking for something they lost.  We wanted to take as few pictures as possible, visit as few tourist hotspots as possible, and buy no memories.  We wanted nothing to distract from the moment which we promised to treasure.  When we finally met up in Vienna, it was an epiphany; we realized that nothing from now on is known to us, it was all new.  What to do in each city or how to discover the ‘essence’ of a city you’ve never been in; it was all new and maybe we would recognize something new in ourselves too.
