Introducing my best friends :

Sepideh from Iran. Zizo from Iraq. Silvia from Nicaragua. Camila from Peru.

Sepideh is top left, Zizo top right, Silvia and I.

Friendship takes an other dimension when you live together. Oh I'm not going to lie to you, sometimes I feel like killing one of them, but then there is always the four other ones. Sepideh is my roommate, she knows everything about me, I know everything about her. Zizo has been the girl next door for two years. I bump into her room at 3am when I need tape or someone to talk to. Silvia is our mama. No really, she's mama Nicaragua. Camila is my alternative friend. She doesn't think like anyone else, I think she's just smarter.  

Camila and yours truly

UWC is such an intense experience that good friends are the key. I can tell you sometimes they get upset by my playing Le Plat Pays from Jacques Brel, but we take each other as we are.

Silvia and Sepideh are sitting next to me right now, in my room, we're listening to Better Way from Ben Harrper. And we're feeling good.

"I believe in a Better Way".

And I'll find that better way he's talking about. We will.
