Over the next year, Doppleganger will become a travelblog! Expect highly saturated pictures of: Parisian fruit stalls, grocery-store treasures, and well-dressed French children. Also, hopefully: travels in rural spain (possible portrait of my masseuse-aunt and the uncle who has a glass eye and three olympic gold medals), jaunts to London and Oxford, and more.

The Eternal Children

Here is the first part of a documentary called "The Eternal Children" about neo folk...

They also all look like really fun people...I pretty much want to be friends with all of them. There are six other parts of the documentary, which you can find on youtube.
