Memory Lane

Memory lane. Photograph by Tim IrvingJust over a week left of living in Spain!
I'd like to assure everyone that this isn't the end of this blog, far from it, it's just the start of a new chapter.

This isn't even the last post from Spain, I should fit in a couple more before I go, but it is time to say goodbye to a lot of friends I've made over eight years. I've had some wonderful times here, Spain is a great country populated with wonderful, warm characters.

So without further ado, I present to you a few of the friends whose lives have touched mine over the years.

  2. This post makes me feel like I'M THE ONE who is leaving Spain. I'm experiencing sympathy nostalgia.

    The portraits are tender, dignified, and so human. I love every one of them. Each pulls something out of me in relation to my own life and the people I've shared it with.

    By the way, that goat herder is my kind of guy!
