From October 31st to November 2nd, mexican families honor those who’ve passed not with grief, but by filling their homes with ofrendas—altars illuminated with family photos, favorite home-cooked meals, and the warm orange glow of cempasúchil marigolds. Cemeteries come alive with stories and music as loved ones gather around decorated gravesides, while the streets fill with vibrant parades and painted faces. It’s a beautiful tradition which reminds us that no one is truly gone as long as their memory is kept alive.

Del 31 de octubre al 2 de noviembre, las familias mexicanas honran a quienes han partido, no desde el duelo, sino llenando sus hogares de ofrendas: altares iluminados con fotos familiares, sus platillos caseros favoritos y el cálido resplandor anaranjado del cempasúchil. Los cementerios cobran vida entre historias y música mientras los seres queridos se reúnen alrededor de las tumbas decoradas, y las calles se llenan de desfiles vibrantes y rostros pintados. Es una tradición hermosa que nos recuerda que nadie se va del todo mientras mantengamos viva su memoria.

A few street photos from my recent weekend escapade in Stockholm. Two things really caught my attention: how stylishly dressed everyone is, and how many parents you see out and about with their young kids—much more so than in France! And yes, the parents well dressed too. :) It’s not necessarily that the birth rate in Sweden is higher, but urban infrastructure is designed with families in mind. Combined with very generous parental leave, young parents get substantial time off work to enjoy days out with their toddlers, while in France the parents are off to work while the toddlers are in daycare.

First organized in 1961 as a way to resolve local conflict through peaceful cultural exchange, the Mount Hagen Cultural Show brings together over 70 distinct tribal groups every August. Each community arrives wearing their traditional bilas—ceremonial adornments where every brush of clay, shell necklace, and woven wig carries clan lineage and deep ancestral meaning. It’s an incredible privilege to experience how the rhythmic thud of kundu drums, the flashing of bird-of-paradise plumes, and the steady cadence of chanting fill the air in the Western Highlands of the world's second largest island.

Organizado por primera vez en 1961 como una forma de resolver conflictos locales a través del intercambio cultural pacífico, el Mount Hagen Cultural Show reúne cada mes de agosto a más de 70 grupos tribales distintos. Cada comunidad llega vistiendo sus bilas tradicionales: adornos ceremoniales donde cada trazo de arcilla, collar de conchas y peluca tejida transmite el linaje del clan y un profundo significado ancestral. Es un privilegio increíble experimentar cómo el retumbar rítmico de los tambores kundu, el destello de las plumas de ave del paraíso y la cadencia constante de los cantos llenan el aire en las Tierras Altas occidentales de la segunda isla más grande del mundo.

Last week I escaped to Stockholm for a long birthday weekend. The largest city in Scandinavia is striking, both naturally and architecturally. I’ve got a few photographer notes on street life coming soon, but first, I wanted to share some of my the city's architectural beauty with you.

La semana pasada me escapé a Estocolmo para pasar un fin de semana largo por mi cumpleaños. La ciudad más grande de Escandinavia es impresionante, tanto por su naturaleza como por su arquitectura. Pronto compartiré algunas observaciones sobre la vida en sus calles, pero primero quería compartir con ustedes un poco de su belleza arquitectónica.

Portrait of Huli Wigman at the Mount Hagen Show. There is an effortless quiet dignity in their gaze and it's easy to see why they remain the undisputed stars of the Mount Hagen Show year after year. While hundreds of Highlands groups gather here, nothing quite pulls a crowd or stops you in your tracks like the iconic presence of the Huli with their human-hair wigs, crowned with delicate bird-of-paradise feathers and the vivid, cracked yellow and red painted across their skin.

Retrato de un Huli Wigman en el Festival de Mount Hagen. Hay una dignidad serena y natural en su mirada, y resulta fácil comprender por qué son las estrellas indiscutibles de este evento año tras año. Entre cientos de grupos etnicos de las altas tierras de Papua Nueva Guinea, ninguno impacta tanto como los Huli con sus pelucas de cabello humano coronadas por delicadas plumas de ave del paraíso y los vivos colores amarillo y rojo pintados sobre su piel.

Last May, I traveled through Guerrero looking to experience the state's wonderful folklore. But I faced two big obstacles: fear—because everyone warned me against going due to the state's reputation for violence— and a lack of info. I even asked AI for help, but it suggested festivals which didn't even exist! Luckily, while exploring the pre-Hispanic caves of Acatlán, villagers told me to come back a few days later for the feast of San Isidro. Boy was I in for a wonderful surprise: Maromeros, Viejitos, and Mecos dancing through the streets, carrying the saint to every house, crowned by incredible fireworks at night. One of the best travel experiences I've ever had.!!

El pasado mes de mayo viajé por Guerrero con la intención de conocer el maravilloso folclore del estado. Pero me enfrenté a dos obstáculos: el miedo —ya que todos me advertían que no fuera debido a la fama de violencia de la región— y la falta de información. Incluso recurrí a la inteligencia artificial en busca de ayuda, ¡pero me sugirió festivales que ni siquiera existían! Por suerte, mientras exploraba las cuevas prehispánicas de Acatlán, los habitantes me animaron a regresar unos días más tarde para la fiesta de San Isidro. ¡Y vaya sorpresa tan maravillosa me llevé! Vi a maromeros, viejitos y mecos bailando por las calles y llevando al santo de casa en casa, todo ello culminando con unos fuegos artificiales increíbles por la noche. ¡¡Fue una de las mejores experiencias viajeras de mi vida!!

September 15th marks the night of El Grito de Dolores, the historic 1810 call to arms that ignited Mexico’s fight for independence and remains the emotional heartbeat of its National Day celebrations. Beyond its incredible cultural and geographical diversity, Mexico holds a profoundly special place in my life—it is home to dear friends who have become my chosen family, and a place where I always feel completely at home. ¡Que Viva México, cab !

El 15 de septiembre marca la noche del Grito de Dolores, el histórico llamado a las armas de 1810 que encendió la lucha por la independencia de México y sigue siendo el corazón emocional de sus celebraciones patrias. Más allá de su increíble diversidad cultural y geográfica, México ocupa un lugar profundamente especial en mi vida: es el hogar de queridos amigos que se han convertido en mi familia de elección y un lugar donde siempre me siento completamente en casa. ¡Qué viva México, ca !

Portrait of a woman from the Chambri tribe during a sing-sing organized for the inauguration of a Spirit House in Kaminimbit, a village along the mighty Sepik River.
Sing-sings are cultural gatherings—ranging from intimate local events to grand festivals—held to mark significant milestones and strengthen bonds between tribal groups. Performers wear traditional attire and body paint to share ancestral dances.

Retrato de una mujer de la tribu Chambri durante un sing-sing organizado para la inauguración de una Casa de los Espíritus en Kaminimbit, una aldea situada a orillas del río Sepik. Los *sing-sings* son encuentros culturales — que van desde eventos locales íntimos hasta grandes festivales— celebrados para conmemorar hitos importantes y fortalecer los vínculos entre grupos tribales. Los participantes lucen vestimentas tradicionales y pinturas corporales para compartir danzas ancestrales.
