Postcards from Paradise of El Colli.
Guadalajara, Jalisco. México. June, 2018.

My neighborhood is surrounded by factories. It is not the nicest area in the city. I've been living here for 15 years now. I am used to the worn out, torn, old, rusty atmosphere. There is a rainwater channel i always wanted to explore. Someone broke the lock and the gate is now open. There is a huge sweets and pastry factory. It always stinks. Crime rate is somewhat high, yet I have never been victim of it. Street lamps are broken most of the time. It gets quite dark. I've changed a lot in 15 years. The neighborhood, not so much.
