Cartagena is a beautiful, colonial town in the Caribbean Coast of Colombia. We arrived at night to the sounds of Cuban-infused jazz drifting through the warm, heavy air. There were kids playing football in the street, vendors selling maize bread and friendly men offering us water, marijuana, cocaine… Inside the walls sits an elegant city centre, where we wandered the quiet streets and took in the Cartagena in all her beauty. Beautiful negra women sell fruit in the traditional dress of the area. The climate makes for a slow lifestyle with a lot of sitting around and sleeping in the shade of the city streets or gardens. One of the entrances to the walled city, this archway is about 5 metres thick. The traditional mixed with the modern. You can buy anything from local handicrafts from the artisanas on the footpath, to the latest fashions in air conditioned boutiques. Read More

Taganga, Colombia

Taganga is a fishing village, we recently visited, on the Caribbean Coast of Colombia. The sleepy town is centred around the beach front where cabanas and palm trees look over children playing in the tropical waters. Half of the beach is dominated by modest fishing boats, while the other half is (unfortunately) dominated by plastic bags and soft drink bottles. However, I seemed to be the only one who noticed the trash, everyone else swam through it with a big caribbean smile. I’m not sure what’s going on in Colombia, but we were surrounded by babies. Human, puppy, kitten, calf. This kitten reminded me of E.T. with it’s big eyes and bony body. This is my boyfriend, James, getting to know her. I think it’s super cute. Read More

I have been taking photos every day of April, in this beautiful village, nestled amongst the Andes of Ecuador. Tomorrow is the last day of my photography project 30 Days in Chugchilan. Chugchilan is on the Quilotoa loop, near the famous crater lake. It is (relatively) near to Latacunga. Thanks to everyone for all your lovely photo comments through emails and Facebook. It’s great to see the effect photos can have on people across the globe. Here is one of the photos that proved to warm the hearts of many people. Please check out the photo project page and let me know what you think. P.S. Selected prints will be available to buy from my Gallery & Shop for the month of May 2010. Read More

Recycling around the World

My boyfriend James is on a mission to recycle everything possible. While in Peru, he designed a funky wallet that can be made from used milk, juice or wine 1 litre cartons. He taught some local kids how to recycle the cartons into wallets, and he started a 1-man factory in our apartment where he created wallets from the piles of cartons which were donated. All wallets come from either Peru or Ecuador, with a variety of images and writing in Español. These wallets will be for sale. If you want some early inside info, send me an email at info@aliciafox.net Here are some shots of James teaching children at the C.E.P school in Huanchaco, Peru, how to make the wallets. Read More

This morning as I walked along my now local beach here in Peru, I was shocked to come across the head and tail of a dolphin. The decapitated animal looked as if was still smiling – just as they do at Seaworld and other marine parks. These photos will be used by an amazing organisation in Peru, Mundo Azul, which is working to protect Peru's beautiful cetaceans. Read More
