Whenever I travel, I am fascinated by the influx of people who I am surrounded by and the preoccupation of guessing whether they are residents of the city I am visiting or tourists like me. I can identify with the feeling of being displaced and somewhat discombobulated first by the every day experience of being alive and second by the act of traveling across the world so easily and quickly in a way that would have been unheard of even a hundred years ago. I do like the idea that we all come from somewhere and yet I also feel like geography might be a cruel illusion to keep molecules floating in space so desperately apart. I’ve always been against the politicization of borders and xenophobia. In my own country, there has been such a talk about walls and the criminalization of humans who have valid life stories and probably a great deal to teach us. The only real danger to the future of America is white supremacists and profit over people, which has been shaping the legislature here fore far too long.
In any case, I like to imagine a Miami, Spain. Perhaps, it is just as warm and tropical but with better architecture and more progressive politicians. Perhaps, you can pacify even the most agitated alligator there by feeding it papa bravas and distract DeSantis from further hate speech and harmful policies by trapping him for an eternity in some elaborate Gaudi architecture.

Until recently I never knew Miami had a river. There is so much water everywhere that a narrow river gets lost in all of that. But here is the Miami river, separating downtown Miami on the left, from the town of Brickell on the right.
Looking at Miami from a distance it is impossible to note that these are actually two towns because they are so close to each other.
Beautifully illuminated downtown Miami at night. Miami Arena, home of the world famous Miami Heat, is partially visible on the right.
Our beautiful city... hopefully it will be unharmed by this time next week with Hurricane Irma now barreling towards us.
