Hi,
I started this blog in 2006 under the name of "A Photo A Day" when I moved to Latin America for half a year. I'm back on the continent, but now for a much longer time. I've settled in Medellin and will be covering all of Latin America from here.
I don't really update this blog much anymore though. But you can keep following my work on the website of my new project: www.themedellinoffice.com.

Here's the press release:
