Porteño

Porteño
Adejctive
From or Related to Buenos Aires.

I consider Buenos Aires to be another home (I’m half Argentine but live in Ireland), but growing up, there was always a strange feeling of floating, of not belonging neither here nor there.

Through capturing what I found quintessentially Porteño, I explore what it means to be ‘from’ a place.

Perhaps something as simple as mundane objects that begin to hold sentimental value when you don’t have access to them.

The smells, the architecture and the customs reminding you, you’re home.
