Life in Colour has never been so Sweet
My husband and I decided to live in Spain two years ago. We have been moving around Europe a bit but our home is Spain. We now finally got back home to Spain after a little travel. I cannot tell you, how wonderful and sweet life is in a small town called Miraflores de la Sierra. It’s a home for golden eagles! I have seen an eagle decent from the sky to catch its food while writing! What a magical site was that!
There’s plenty of time — mañana
In Spain there’s plenty of time or so it seems. I love how people don’t rush. After London this life seems a bliss. It’s too hot to walk super fast. It’s too hot to be mean. People are relaxed even the estate agents. I am used to the estate agents to chase me and call me repeatedly until I finally tell them to stop. Here I am doing all the chasing! However, they make money off me if they sell or rent me something, right?
The attitude here is relaxed. Everyone needs money but I’ve never seen such a relaxed way about it. The priorities are the family, food and then work, however, when they work they really work really hard. From 2pm until 5.30pm is siesta lunch or whatever you want to call it. They’ve got their priorities right!
