Quito

Often simply written as "W/NW" - your favorite photos. Explain them, or let your photos (film or digital) speak for themselves.

Sorry about the stealing of your Yashica. I was in Quito many years ago and remember it as a safe place, but things are changing in our continent. That kind of robbery is common in Montevideo but they usually take cell phones from people waiting for their Uber or bus.

Those square shots are nice. That house was a TV studio?

Thanks for the comiseration

Yes, that was Teletortuga, channel 6 when I was a Kid.
The house was originally the Piedrahita family house, they owned all that land and until the mid 1950s it was still agricultural (casa de hacienda) .

You can see it in the right corner in this pic from 1968 (by my dad or grand dad)
