2014 : a year in review.

December 31, 2014 in Diary

I looked everywhere to find the perfect word to singlehandedly describe this last year.

I found one : intense.

2014 was indeed a very intense year for me.

Very high ups, very low downs. Divided among 3 continents, 5 time zones and way more seasons that one would normally experience. Over 6000 km on a bicycle, an average of 3 hours of walking a day and countless long hours sitting on my bum.

Fujifilm X100s review : from Roma with love

January 30, 2014 in Diary, Review, Gear, Fujifilm

I finally had the chance to lay my hulking hands on the beautiful Fujifilm X100s, the camera over which I have been drooling night and day for the last year or so. The camera that I always wanted but couldn't absolutely afford (25 years old freelance photographer here, remember?). The camera that one of my favorite photographers of all times, Zack Arias, described as the "DSLR killer".

unCOMMON:Stories, a recap

Of course you've heard of unCOMMON:Stories. I'm sure you didn't let slip through your fingers the fact that it was advertised by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and by Steve Jobs himself as "the biggest thing to happen to books since the invention of the book" (attention: parts of the previous sentence might be made up).

I'm sure you have your copy there, resting gently on your coffee table, ready to be showed with pride to all of your guests. I'm sure you read a couple pages everynight, just to make sure you have the best possible dreams ever.
