The hallaca is considered one of the most representative icons of

Venezuelan multicultural heritage,as its preparation includes European ingredients

(such as raisins, nuts and olives), indigenous ingredients (corn meal colored with

annatto seeds), and African ingredients (smoked plantain leaves used for wrapping). Its

name is pronounced "ah-ya-ka".

The image of this couple was very pleasant because both of them seemed happy to be together, laughing and making comments about something that was amusing to them. And  more over, they were sitting at one of those memorable park benches that you can see in many places in England, which have names engraved on to remember other people who have passed away. People who used to sit on those park benches and watch the world go by.

when I saw this guy doing his performance in the middle of Las Ramblas in Barcelona, I felt that his type of life should be caused by a bad need for some income to survive, however somebody who decides to stay disguised and frozen in front of hundreds of people - most don't pay attention to him - might be somebody with certain sense of humor, not taking himself very seriously, with a lot of  perseverance and patience. And it would be interesting to know what stories are behind these characters who make many streets so colorfoul.

background, 'The Fat Face'. Comments are welcome...
