Un Llarg Viatge d'Orient a Occident- Laura en América

Red lights, [Un acordeón en Palermo], Todo puede pasar, aún. Todo es posible. Todo pasa mas queriendo que sin querer. Estaciones con mendigos y guitarristas. Suena un Waltz en La Paz y el caribe en Rio, cántico de negros, alma blanca e impura. Cierro los ojos y me pierdo en América, a pesar de todo, de ti, de él y de todos nosotros, a pesar de la historia y de los hombres. The spirit from the north, the cherry-red spirit travelling through paradise.

y olé

Okay, so I just survived a 2 hour flight from Eindhoven to Madrid with bloody Ryanair. I don´t quite understand why I keep on choosing Ryanair to fly... you fly at inhuman hours, only aloud to carry 15 kilos, otherwise they´ll charge you 15€ per kilo! well... fortunately my Colombian mentality still carries on... I ended up taking 3 bags as hand luggage ahhaha I kept on smiling to everyone who wondered how on earth did I manage to pass those through security. (I learned that from flying with Luisa once.. to England, ask her for details)

Anyhow... I made it. We´re in Madrid... haven´t been in Spain in a long time. I need to get use to the way spaniards approach you... and the fact that EVERYONE understands when you swear in Spanish! Coño!

(sigh) I can´t believe i´d miss Holland that much already. I just unrolled a story with someone, without knowing that it would colour the very texture of my daily life, knowing that it was the right space but just not the right time. Meh... there´s only one thing to say.. I´ll be back!

as for now: South America!

Off to Colombia!!

y olé!
