what a crazy time it has been…
I have been here for, what it feels, a long time and I absolutely love it. However, it is still far away from where I grew up, very different and even though it has become my home, I can still feel like an outsider sometimes.
Still, I have learned that you have to take whatever good is thrown to you. Although I still do not speak Catalàn (I understand a bit and I am starting Duolingo!), I do feel part of the culture.
At the start of the year I had a visit from a cousin that had never been in Catalunya. On her last day we went out and because it was the season we had calçots, saw a sardana (and danced poorly) and saw castellers.
So, yeah, this is home…
