I'm leaving to Nowhere: see you tonight at the Basecamp in the Middle of Nowhere!

So, I'm leaving today to Barcelona, then driving to the Monegros Desert. I hope to arrive @ Nowhere before midnight. I will be driving from Barcelona to the Nowhere site on a VW Golf: I'm sure I'll enjoy the road trip!


I'm leaving this afternoon from Rome (Ciampino Airport) with three friends, here's our team:
  • Pasquale (aka PazCal)
  • Tommaso (aka TomMot)
  • Alice (aka AllIce)
  • Erika (aka SplitEri)
We're ready to join the Volunteer Crew at Nowhere and start our Art Project (The Runway).

I'll be back on Monday with pictures of the Nowhere site, videos and a lot to write about...

Enjoy your weekend!

What to wear at the Nowhere event i.e. How's the weather in the desert

The Nowhere event is held in the middle of the desert, the Monegros Desert in Spain, near Zaragoza. The nearest city is Castejón de Monegros (600 inhabitants).

How's the weather @Nowhere in July?
I guess the weather will be pretty hot during the day, cooler at night. I recommend you to take light t-shirts and trousers for the day and something to protect you from the cold of the desert nights. I don't know much more because I couldn't find anything interesting on the web.

However, the pictures from last years' Nowhere events seem to validate my guess: the day is hot, the nights are cooler.

By the way, don't forget to take with you a pair of glasses and a cool hat to protect your head! Maybe you could use sun protection cream too if your skin is delicate. Obviously, an extravagant suite is also appreciated!

You may have a look at these pictures to know more about the weather and what to wear @Nowhere.

Nowhere during the day: hot weather.


Nowhere in the afternoon: less hot and sun is going down.


Nowhere at night: cooler!
