Hanoi

I want to dedicate a post to our apartment in Hanoi. Once again, we decided to stay at Elegant5 on 21 Nam Ngu and we love it. They completely renovated the building, that was already very nice, but this is just insane. The location is perfect, close to everything, market included, but not in the […]

I and Renzo went to this Installation Exhibition by YAYOI KUSAMA “Obsessions”, at the Japanese Cultural center (some other shots here). We actually enjoyed it very much. and then lunch with Daniele at the famous Bun Cha place close to the National Television Tower

Here are some of the capoeira aulas we did in Hanoi with our friend Nam, first at the Vietfighter Gym and then at Lenin Square. and here I am Have you seen my foot????? Creepy! Since at midnight it was Daniele’s Bday, we met with more people and celebrate with Jegermaister… Nice picture Silvia…well done! […]

Daniele’s students took us out for dinner, but the best part of the night was probably the performance time at the Red Room. Everyone is soooooo into it. Renzo and gangnam style

I think I became a better photographer… or maybe the light today was just insane!Daniele is working and the sky is blue, it is hot, but not terrible today, since we had a good 1 day and a half of rain. it is the perfect time to walk around the Old Quarter in search of […]
