“There is no need to build a labyrinth when the entire universe is one.”
Borges probably could have written that standing in Guanajuato. The city folds into itself through tunnels, hills, staircases and curves that send you back to places you thought you already knew. It’s a living labyrinth built from color and public life. Easy to get lost in, and even easier to want to.
There are people…who find islands somehow irresistible. The mere knowledge that they are on an island, a little world surrounded by the sea, fills them with an indescribable intoxication. - Lawrence Durrell
