We bought a house!

My beautiful home island, Mallorca, has become a very expensive place to buy a house. So for the money it would cost to buy a parking spot here, we bought a beautiful old house in Asturias, a region in the north of Spain. Our friends say we are crazy, but in truth we are amazed by the natural beauty and the variety of cuisine in the north of my country. Here are some photos of my little village, which is uninhabited except for our house. The place overlooks the Pantano de Grandas de Salime. The air smells of moss and eucalyptus, and there is an owl that lives in our attic. This is a dream.The house needs a lot of renovations. I'm looking forward to sharing this process with you!
