1998 - 2011
My years spent in a Country that was capsizing. Mesmerizing, terrifying, tragic, suspenseful, suspended in time and simply wonderful. I moved to Caracas from Milan in 1998. That was the year I married and Hugo Chavez elected president of Venezuela. I have felt trapped, wanting to get back a "normal" existence but the concept of "normal" was fading away. I ended a bit beaten up, but perhaps transformed in a better version of me.
