En un lugar de la Mancha, de cuyo nombre no quiero acordarme..."
hola a todos...
for the first time in my life i'm updating from a different country....yayy for spain. what's up this december? it's hella cold down here but it's ok....like in italy i guess. it feels so weird to escavate in autumn...that is almost winter. but when you're working hard you're even able to wear just a t-shirt if the sun is shining....
albert and i (albert is sitting next to me to another pc writing and navigating) are here in the lab, "taking advantage" of all the computers...and listening to the fab hollies which i discovered here in guadalajara thanks to the guys who work here (i spied their music files and here came the hollies ^^)....this "butterfly" is amazing....
i keep drinking cafe' cortados...i just love them....i'm addicted. from the next wednesday i'll be alone 'cos my friends will leave. i'm leaving on monday 18th. i'm gonna miss them i know, but i'm gonna miss Alberto more. he's been my real rock on this excavation and my confident.
this excavation is really good. but tough. and i find it hard to keep working and be at my ease: it's a "real work" not a university excavation and you clearly feel the difference. there are a million of things that i still didn't know and don't know....but i'm happy about it. think i'm learning.
a bit scared by what i'm gonna find at my return. my heart is trembling. but what will be will be, right? LET'S TAKE CHANCES.
yesterday i've been to Segovia and it's been magical.
it was so cold and rainy...just perfect.
Spain is enchanting and mysterious and poetic. like in my dreams. she never deludes you. it's exactly like you had imagined it but it's not disappointing, she's just too fair. El Quijote is here in the nearby...when i see the rocky hilles from my window (in a neighbourhood that looks like harry potter's one..so english and nice!) i clearly see him wandering around...;D....
maybe Toledo tomorrow...but don't wanna bring bad luck....we were supposed to go there yesterday...but the trains were all full...and every time i say i wanna go it never happens....so...we'll see.
what hits me about this country is the moon...last summer has been a real companion of perfect moments in merida ...here...she keeps looking at me ^^...and when i see her from spain it's always above a river...coincidences....but it's a magical thing anyway...
besos and take care. suerte y animo.
