Went for a walk at The Dish and ran into a very nice couple – she’s from Brazil and he works at Facebook.

Ouch! People actually eat this!? Had to try it… kkk

Homework assignment: go and observe the CalTrain experience and capture it with sketches.

I did the first ones on the phone and took some photos since I didn’t have a sketchbook yet…

Them I went again with the proper equipment 🙂

And finally the report:

Exercise in quick sketching

So it has started for real now!

First class was CS 247 – HCI Studio – a course designed to “deepen your fluency with design prototyping and critique for interactive technology”.

Did a lot of sketches… and already have homework 🙂 Loving it!

 

Today we took a “field trip” to San Francisco and went to Rainbow Grocery. My wife has been studying Raw and Functional food for the past years but we had never seen anything like this. The sheer variety of brands, products, and variations is humbling.

Well – like almost everything else around here.

We arrived only a week ago and so far, all of my expectations have been surpassed… not to mention what I didn’t know even existed, like Wag Hotels 🙂

So we are finally here… it was long year in the making… preparing my school to work without me, leaving everything behind and in order was tough but now it’s done!

We arrived on the 10th of Sept and I must say that all my expectations have been surpassed… we were worried about the off-campus subsidized housing we were going to get but upon arrival we realized we were completely wrong – the apt is amazing…

School is amazing – apart from the fact that is absolutely gorgeous – everyone you meet is interesting, interested, happy and honored to be here.

The food is unbelievably fresh, organic and tasteful!

It’s going to be a hell of a ride!!
