The neighbourhood of Palermo, in the City of Buenos Aires. Great place to spend an afternoon if you're a tourist:

Un cafe

And while you visit you'll have to enjoy an asado, prepared among friends (take your time, never rush a meal!)

Boy coming back home at sunset hour

A rather low-income village, where despite the demoralizing effect of life lived in the poverty line, with few prospects and marred by economic conflicts, people are kind and generous, with that kind simplicity of being strangers to the stress and pressure of those residing in the big cities seeking ways to improve their living conditions and opportunities, pursuing a "better quality of life".


As in any small community, everybody knows each other. And by know I mean individual backgrounds, histories, and family situations. Even if you are a stranger to them or spent enough time away to become one, they´ll bow down to you whenever you walk past them (and it´s considered rude to not greet back). That creates an environment in which kids can wander around on their own, absolutely free and all safe from harm to play, explore and discover their "world".

Its modest infrastructure turnes into something like a large amusement park where the theme is nature, devoid of the trappings and accessories imbuing our daily life in the city. Children benefit from the opportunity to create their own fun using whatever it is the surrounding environment provides them with. I think this entertainment experience tends to promote the potential talents and resources of each child.

Yet, whether they are fully aware of it or not, they have their own concerns: isolation, lack of development and economic possibilities, almost forgotten and not representing priority concern for people who make decisions that will affect their present and future.

After spending great moments of my childhood in this quiet place, I think of myself as a small town spirit but undeniably hooked on the benefits of urban life.

This kid is my grandmother´s neighbor. He´s coming back home, I assumed after a long day playing in those dirt quiet streets.

As soon as I saw him walking towards me this question came to my mind, the dichotomy that exists in me between my preference for the peace of mind such places can provide on the one hand, and the city offer of easier access to the comforts money can buy on the other.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Este es un pueblo de bajos recursos, donde a pesar del efecto desmoralizador de la vida vivida en el umbral de la pobreza, con pocas perspectivas y empañada por conflictos económicos, la gente es cálida y generosa, con esa simplicidad de ser extraños a la tensión y la presión de los que residen en las grandes ciudades buscando mejorar sus condiciones y oportunidades, persiguiendo una "mejor calidad de vida".

Como en cualquier comunidad pequeña, todo el mundo se conoce. Y me refiero a conocerce individualmente, conocer las historias y situaciones familiares. Incluso si se es un extraño para ellos o se ha pasado el suficiente tiempo lejos para convertirse en uno, los locales inclinarán su cabeza en un saludo cada vez que se pase junto a ellos (y se considera de mala educación no devolver la cordialidad recibida). Eso crea un ambiente en el que los niños pueden vagar por su cuenta, absolutamente libres y a salvo de cualquier daño, jugar, explorar y descubrir su "mundo".

La modesta infraestructura convierte a éste lugar en algo así como un gran parque de atracciones donde el tema es la naturaleza, desprovista de los adornos y accesorios que impregnan nuestra vida cotidiana en la ciudad. Los niños se benefician de la oportunidad de crear su propia diversión usando lo que sea que éste entorno les proporcione. Creo que esta experiencia de entretenimiento tiende a promover el talento y los recursos de cada niño.

Esto, sin embargo, implica otros costos, sean plenamente conscientes de ello o no: el aislamiento, la falta de posibilidades de desarrollo personal y económico, casi olvidados y no representando interés prioritario para las personas que toman las decisiones que afectan a su presente y futuro.

Después de pasar grandiosos momentos de mi infancia aquí, me considero como con un espíritu pueblerino, pero sin lugar a dudas atrapada por los beneficios de la vida urbana.

Este chico es vecino de mi abuela. Regresaba a casa después de un largo día jugando en esas tranquilas calles de tierra.

Tan pronto como lo vi caminando hacia mí esta pregunta vino a mi mente, la dicotomía que existe en mí entre mi preferencia por la tranquilidad que este entorno puede proporcionar por un lado, y la oferta citadina que facilita el acceso a las comodidades que dinero puede comprar, por el otro.
