My favorite TV Show:Although I consider Breaking Bad my favorite and most perfect TV drama, I won't choose it for this blog because probably there's a lot of people talking already of it, and since I am a proud Hipster, I will talk about Peep Show, another amazing Tv show that makes my ass laugh off.

Peep show is a famous british sitcom written by Jesse Armstrong, that tells the adventures of two, barely middle-aged, mans in the city of London and his dysfunctional efforts to get sex, money or simply to get out of their mediocre way of life. Mark, acted by David Mitchell and his partner Jeremy, who is played by Robert Webb, suffer the crisis of a society in where they are asked to "grow up" and star accomplishing the task of the working life. While Mark plays the responsible and embittered character, Jeremy is his lazy friend trying to live his teen dream of being a rockstar why staying in Mark's flat. 

One thing that I love from this Tv show is the fact that all the camera takes are made imitating the point of view of the character,(from there comes the name) and this is the perfect complement for a mainly ironic yet pretty accurate sketch of the modern world, that sometimes turn ours aspirations into a source of misery.

The story takes a spin when Haller find a extrange manuscript that lead him to Hermine, a misterious woman who will show him the night side of the city with his Jazz and frenzy events. After that, Haller is driven to the "Magic Theater", where he will experience his whole life in a for of five doors, choosing after this wheth...

Ladakh, a place I would love to visit!

Ladakh , a place I would love to visit! I  have   always felt this special fascination with remotes settlements that due to an extreme nature, still remains mostly untouched by the hand of modernity, as if they were trapped in a time capsule, preserving ways of life that go thousands of years back, right to the origins of history and civilization.   Ladakh is full of  lonely temples that from the top of the montains, overlook the vast plains of the rivers Ladakh is one of these magical places, located at the northest point of Jammu and Kashmir state in India, where the Himalayas begins and the inclement weather and the  rough topography make  it hard the advance of big cities.  In this place, between gigantic mountains, live their life small groups of tibetan and indians , sustained almost completely from agriculture and cattle raising of a bovid called Yak, a hairy type of Ox that inhabits the hostile plains of Ladhak  ...
