Sauvage

I grew up in America, raised in a Colombian

household. I was never one or the other. You can argue

my first language is truly

Spanglish.

I was taught to always want to explore. To not judge anything, to just go and have fun.

This book ‘Les Villes et Le Sauvage’ Is a collection of my photos from my travels. I love to travel and have new experiences. No two places

are alike.

Its hard to compare, or to put a label on anything, In this book I sompare my experiences whilst traveling, seeing the similarities from each place I visit, but appreciating each experience for what it is.

Traveling is all about reflection. The altitude in the mountains

was too much for me to handle on my first day in Colombia. Alas I returned to the car to sit back and enjoy the

scenery while the others continued

their hike.

guildfordVisiting a friend I made while traveling outside of London. A charming city where I discovered was once home to the author Lewis Carol, author of Alice in Wonderland. A piece of litterature and a series of art that I had studied in Parsons. Truly I was in Wonderland.

The view from the fortified city of Saint Malo. I was on exchange here in High School, our favorite lunch break activity was to first make our way to the local pub, and then to this overlook.

summer I was working for the first time in Europe. I was invited to come

join the family as my cousin prepared to move to the new city. A beautiful

city and an amazing culture.

EAST M

ARION

Almost every year, since the day I was born, My dads friends organize a trip in East Marion, or Orient point as we call it. A weekend of eating on the beach, running around in a bathing suit doing as you please. Saturday nights are my favorite. Lobster and clam bake on the beach next to a bon fire. The kids run around carefree. Some of my favorite childhood memories I’ve had during these weekends.
