Well, that's why we prefer to realize our tropical paradises in our backyards or rumpus rooms. Too bad I missed this series, being away from LA so much the second half of this year.
I never bought into this drop-out-of-the-rat-race philosophy, I am too much a visual junkie who needs a steady flow of imagery to be inspired. Not only natural imagery, but intelligent stuff, visual concepts, twisted juxtapositions that make me laugh. I always was an urbanite, although lately I have softened and do not appreciate anymore the cold grey stone apartment dwellings of metropolises like Berlin. LA is just the right mixture for me: an urban sea comprised of individual islands, tropical yet civilized. And seemingly limitless in what one can still discover.
