The best gift & the biggest learning ....

Travelling is leaving home,
parting with friends
it’s trying to fly;
to fly along new routes
crossing paths
it is trying to change.

Travelling is dressing crazy
it’s saying “I don’t care”
it’s wanting to go back.
To return appreciating the small things
sipping a drink,
it’s wanting to begin.

Travelling is feeling like a poet,
writing a card,
it’s wanting to hug.
Embracing in a doorway
longing for calm
it’s stopping to kiss.

Travelling is to become worldly
it’s to meet other people
it’s to return to the beginning.
It’s to start offering a hand,
learning from the strong,
it’s to feel solitude.

Travelling is leaving home,
it’s dressing crazy
saying everything and nothing in a postcard.
It’s sleeping in another bed,
it’s feeling that time is short,
travelling is to go back.

My dream house

 

 If I could choose my dream house, without a doubt  it would be in La Paz city, in the  Achumani's suburb. I must confess that I have a  real soft spot for this neighborhood, because I was living there for ages and I've been so happy there.

My dream house would be a  magnificent detached house, conveniently situated between 25th and 26th street in Achumani's suburb, thirty minutes from the city centre and ten minutes from Valle de la Luna and La muela del Diablo, two incredible  and ideal places for jogging or cycling.

My dream house would be spacious, with five bedrooms  all of them with walk-in closet, with a living room with a inglenook fireplace,  also with a large dinning room, a cute kitchen, two bathrooms one of them with a fantastic jacuzzi. As well as, with a cellar because my husband love drinking  good wines, and of course, this house would have a large backyard, so it would be a charming place,  especially in summer time. For this reason this house would have  a shed so I love gardening and also I would need  a place for storing not only my tools but also I would need to keep some bycicles there.

This house would be  incredible, because  there would  be some breathtaking views of the woods  surrounding  the glittering Lagunilla Rosa  from all the windows. Moreover, it would  have a large and colourful garden around the house, and a large patio which would be ideal for having some barbecues. 

 

In addition, this house would be really confortable, so it would have cable television, Internet, a pool table, a small gym and a garage with an automatic gate.

Finally I would like to tell you that I adore this neighborhood, so it's safe and friendly, and the most important thing, my dream house would be a short driving distance from stores and restaurants in the local town and of course near to my Bolivian family !!! 

I was forgetting that  it would be near to peculiar jumble sale.  It's a place where the native people sell

vegetables, fruit and handicrafts. It would be five minutes walking from my dream house.

Magic days!

One more time, yesterday and today I've confirmed  that the best gift that The Three Wise Men have given me are my friends. We've enjoyed of some stupendous days together. Without a doubt, this was the best beginning  of a new year! For this reason, I'm really grateful with them and of course with the life....
