Rapa Nui (Easter Island)
I visited Easter Island in December 2010. Together with Miguel Fuentes, Ricardo Guzman and Carlos Rodriguez-Sickert I am currently working on a paper about the history of its moai, the monumental stone figures built during the centuries between the first settlement of the island by Polynesians sometime between 800 and 1200 CE and the outbreak of serious warfare in the 17th century. Here is Unesco World Heritage Sites Rapa Nui page. The photographs on this page were taken by me during my trip in 2010.

Santa Fe, New Mexico
The city of Santa Fe, NM, is one of the most beautiful cities in North America. Its official website is here. It houses the Santa Fe Institute, where I have been a visitor almost every year since 2005, but also the Santa Fe Opera, a large number of galleries of both modern and folk art, and some remarkable architecture in adobe. The photo at the head of this post is of Taos Pueblo, an hour’s drive north of Santa Fe.
