A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, I worked in a cubicle with no windows. Didn’t last long. Fifteen years to the day since I had a boss or punched a clock. Thanks (maybe?) to Elmgreen and Dragset for the vivid reminder. From “Useless Bodies,” Fondazione Prada, Milan, 2022.

🧡 So much gratitude 🧡 From our Korean-American kitchen in Italy, we’re wishing you a heartfelt Happy Thanksgiving. 
Even though Thanksgiving isn’t celebrated here, it’s a day in the U.S. dedicated to gratitude, something we feel deeply this year. We want to thank all of our clients, collaborators, suppliers, and friends who support Kimchi Pop in this country we call home 🇮🇹 Whether you celebrate or not, we hope you enjoy good food and community today!

Dalla nostra cucina coreano-americana qui in Italia, vi auguriamo un sincero e caloroso Happy Thanksgiving. Anche se qui il Thanksgiving non si festeggia, negli Stati Uniti è una giornata dedicata alla gratitudine—un sentimento che quest’anno proviamo profondamente. 
Vogliamo ringraziare tutti i nostri clienti, collaboratori, fornitori e amici che sostengono Kimchi Pop e ci aiutano a crescere in questo Paese che chiamiamo casa. Che lo festeggiate o no, vi auguriamo comunque un momento di buon cibo e comunità oggi. Grazie di cuore, 감사합니다! Beautiful photo by @piercarloquecchia

On a misty September morning @c41magazine came to visit us in Ballabio. We had a simple lunch with kimchi and shin ramyun. Here are the photos and interview from that day. Thank you @xritamorenax for the words and @tonybrugnoli for the beautiful photos. Issue 18 is now available in select retailers globally and online. Thank you so much to the @c41magazine team!

View of the Parrotspitze ridge, and the reverse with Lyskamm and the Matterhorn (in back right). Also a dog wearing a snow visor at 4000m. From a quick trip to Monte Rosa last weekend, Saturday night at the valley floor in Gressoney to Sunday morning on the Parrotspitze, on foot, ~2700m all-in, then the lifts down. Cold and clear with perfect conditions other than some strong wind. It’s been a busy summer without much time for climbing but I’ve enjoyed getting away for a couple quick solo trips without an overnight in the huts, and Monte Rosa brings back great memories of climbing Cresta Signal with @giozac.mountainguide two years ago and the Dufourspitze back in 2019. I feel super fortunate to live a two hour drive from the biggest mountains in the Alps.

Quick trip (but a long day) up Gran Paradiso, directly from the parking lot to the peak. First time “alone” on a 4000m mountain but that’s an extremely relative term on such a busy route. Absolutely beautiful views nonetheless, and still good conditions a couple weeks back. I’m grateful to live so close to this. Also some shots of a cool summer solstice celebration in the valley. Thanks to @universomontagna for the beta and inspiration, and also @francescopaterlini_ for the memories of climbing the more exciting northwest face two years ago.

Three days in “the refrigerator of Italy,” Cogne/Lillaz. #1-7, Monday Money. Finding our first choice packed with over a dozen teams we walked an extra hour and had a fantastic icefall all to ourselves. #8-10 Applying the same logic, we hiked 3 hours to find the beautiful Eknaton, slightly too fragile for our taste. Sometimes there is a reason no track leads there. #11-12 Pattinaggio Artistico (Figure Skating), the longest coldest shower I’ve ever taken. Another good time sharing a rope with Andrea who is always down to walk those extra hours and see what we may find, and always happy to take a hard lead. #iceclimbing #cascatedighiaccio

Quick trip to the Holy Grail in the Caravaggio quest, at the Co-Cathedral of St. John’s, which also has the most impressive floor of any church with the burial stones of hundreds of the Knights of Malta. 🇲🇹 #caravaggio #malta #valletta #arthistory @erineunyoung @ryanair
