San José Centro is a messy and convoluted place. Around 2 million people walk trough the Avenida Central every day. Most of the as a part of their daily commute.

However it has a very distinct feeling to the other capital cities of the world (at least for me) from time to time the zeitgeist is a bit more colorful and energetic.

Al tough messy, often full of trash and a cacophony of sounds and smells. The city has a certain rhythm. And many have made of the streets their dominions.

Some of the homeless people are know by their names and or nicknames by the regulars there. And they often integrate into the scenery, adding an air of authenticity.

And so for some brief moments. They happiness invade them. Sequestering them from their preocupaciones and daily needs.
