After experiencing it for many years, I think when you live a creative lifestyle, which might involve running a small business, being an artist, or a freelancer or working as a solo entrepreneur, your work life can start to feel like one never-ending experiment. You keep adding new services to your business, new ideas to your to-do list, all with the goal of reaching new heights — more ROI, more clients, more exposure. And if one adjustment or idea doesn’t work, you try another one, and then another. And this circle just keeps going, so sometimes it feels like you’re constantly experimenting with your own business. I think that’s partly because, as creative people, our minds are constantly searching. We’re open to new things, so we can come up with dozens of new ideas every day, or at least every week. After many years of running my own creative ventures, there is something I had to learn from all these experiments…. The challenge is actually to limit yourself, stay focused, and allow time to do its work. Because sometimes you have an idea that could actually work but you don’t give it enough time. You change it, add something new, try something else, and before you know it, you’re starting another experiment. So guys, if you’re thinking about starting some new creative venture, stay focused and give it time. And by time, I mean more than a year, more than two years, maybe even three. I know it’s difficult when you’re excited about new ideas all the time. But sometimes the best thing you can do for your idea is simply give it enough time to grow. #travel #creative #creativebusiness #creativecommunity #travelphotographer

Tucked away in the mountain ranges of Piedras Blancas and Cerros de Córdoba, Moclinejo is one of those little hidden gems of Andalusia that you might easily miss. We came here without really knowing what to expect, and I think that’s part of what made discovering it so wonderful. It’s one of the small white towns of Andalusia where you can simply enjoy walking around and noticing little details — the whitewashed houses, narrow streets, flowers, doors, and especially the colorful ceramics that have become such an important part of the street decoration here. You see them everywhere, adding color and personality to the white walls and giving this town a very distinctive character. And let’s not forget the grapes and raisins. They are important local products here. The tradition of growing Moscatel grapes and producing raisins has shaped the lifestyle and economy of the area for generations, and you can still feel that connection when you walk through the town. I love discovering places like Moclinejo because in this type of town, you don’t need a famous landmark or a big tourist attraction to feel connected to a place. Very often, it’s the streets, the houses, the ceramics, the little details, and the stories of people behind them that make a place memorable. If you are ever traveling in Andalusia, make sure to stop by Moclinejo and wander through its streets. #travel #spain #andalucia #history #art

The sand dunes of Tarifa seem to whisper stories, carried by the grains of sand across the valley that surrounds them.
There is something particularly special about this place that you can feel almost as soon as you enter Tarifa... maybe it is the shifting sands, the wind humming around you, or the blue of the sea opening up in front of you. And somehow, all of this feels like silence - not silence in the physical sense, but in a more contextual way.
The uniqueness of this place, the endless white sands, quietly remind you of silence, of space, and at the same time, of how fleeting time can be.
I love places like Tarifa that make you think about something eternal while, at the same time, keeping you completely in the present, because you simply want to continue enjoying these views right now, in this very moment, for as long as possible. #tarifaspain #travel #spain #travelphotography #sanddunes

Nothing Is Forever Do you agree that we tend to want stability? When we are comfortable with where we are, change is usually the last thing we’re looking for. But I think life doesn’t really work that way. Life is about movement where a constant flow of experiences, places, people, and events sooner or later change us. For example … I see it in my own photography work. Fifteen years ago, I was completely in love with wedding and family photography. I did it for long enough to feel that, as a photographer, I had said everything I wanted to say with that kind of photography. Then I moved to the US, and my work naturally shifted toward branding and portrait photography, probably inspired by the incredibly diverse business landscape there. And now we’re in Spain. And I’m discovering how much food, interiors, architecture, and the visual details of everyday life tell you about a culture. So, once again, I’m finding myself moving in a different creative direction — toward food, interior design, and architectural photography. I think that’s okay. Maybe change is not the opposite of stability but is actually part of it. New places, experiences, people, interests — they all give us something new to work with and look forward to. The important part, I think, is staying in tune with yourself enough to notice when something no longer feels right. Because that moment is different for everyone. Sometimes the routine that once gave you stability starts feeling monotonous and uninspiring. And I think you shouldn’t ignore that feeling. Because it is a sign that it’s time for something to change. Sometimes staying stuck in dissatisfaction is much more uncomfortable and scarier than the change itself. #travel #lifeofadventure #changeisgood #explorer #changeyourthoughts

A little memory from our trip to Miami a year ago. The Ice Cream Museum @museumoficecream was exactly the type of interactive experience I love, a place where adults are allowed to be playful again.I think this is what makes interactive museums so special: they invite you to touch, explore, and participate, allowing you to create tangible memories. It was colorful, fun, a little nostalgic, and a good reminder that curiosity and the ability to play shouldn’t disappear when we grow up. #travel #miami #museum #play #funday

Some interiors are beautiful because they are well designed. Others stay with you because they tell a story.

Photographing the interiors of Claude Hotel in Marbella reminded me that thoughtful design is about creating a space where history, light, texture, and carefully selected details quietly work together to shape how you feel.

I always find myself slowing down in places like this, noticing the way the light falls through a window, the texture of centuries-old stone, the curve of an archway, or the small decorative details that most people walk past.
