bikes and skirts.

do not always make a bad match. especially, and ironically, if they are short enough. at least that was my experience in chicago and minneapolis.

however, this skirt is a bit longer so sometimes it got stuck in the brake pads. also, it may be the beginning of summer in the states but to peruvians, it is something to them like mid-november to us. so they looked at me and my skirt and flip-flops like i was crazy. which i guess i am.

that and the fair skin and blonde hair really seem to throw everyone for a loop. i had one man profess his love to me ("te amo! te amo!" he shouted as i biked by on the malecon) and one little girl nearly drove her doll stroller into the street as she was so busy staring at the gringa rubia walking by.

don't they know?: the hair color is fake.
