Every Sunday, the famous Antique Fair of San Telmo takes place and I must say I was very surprised at the amount of fantastic antiques that you can find there! I saw lots and lots of silver cutlery, many fantastic decorations, and I was in love with a wooden old office chair… You have to negotiate to get the best price and I have to confess that if you are looking for something specific, such as pieces of silver by Christofle, find out before exactly how the real pieces should be marked, not to end up buying something that has no value… I saw in one of the shops nearby amazing travelling trunks from Louis Vuitton that were absolutely amazing! Well, you have to go there!!!

Camila Penteado Cilento graduated in Business Administration in 2005 and works in the financial market (“the job that pays the rent”)… But the real “Cami”, as she is called by her closest friends, hasn’t found her dream job yet, but she just knows that her real passion is the aesthetics that she finds in fashion, in architecture, in gourmet, and in visual arts. In 2008, she finally had her dream come true and moved to New York City, where she learned that to feel alive you have to run after your dreams! In the end of 2008, she started a blog called “I am leaving today” (http://iamleaving2day.blogspot.com), where she writes about all the discoveries made when she was living her dream for real. While blogging she realized that writing is one of the best ways to communicate her ideas to the world and by doing this she has the opportunity to talk to people that are as far as they are close. Stay tuned…
