My new life in the village has begun, and although it has been non-stop with all the unpacking and getting to know my new surroundings; my stress levels have gone down by 120%.
You would think or even ask, a young woman with stress, how can that be? Well, Yes I have suffered from it like many other people who have to go through daily pressures at work and city chaos. I notice life here doesn’t evolve around, fashion, make up, work or just trying to be the best. Life here is about living and enjoying the little things in life, for example, Food. I am not saying people do not suffer stress here, I have been here less than a week but it is already different. No traffic congestions to go through or pollution.
As I mentioned before, food is very important here, everyone enjoys cooking and eating and it doesn’t surprise me at all, it isn’t something patriotic or something they just brag about. Food is really nice and I look forward to eating. When I sit at the table my head thinks, “my god I am going to get FAT!” But once I run up the three flights of stairs to brush my teeth I think again and confirm that will NOT happen considering I just burnt all the lunch running up the stairs, and it’s inevitable to do that more than 5, 6 or 7 times a day.
The house is lovely; it’s massive but at the moment I only make use of two of the rooms from how cold it is. I am looking forward for some guests to arrive so we can heat this house properly or even for spring to finally arrive. I walk around the house with layers of clothes on, gloves and hats yet cold air comes out of my mouth. I carry the heater like a hand bag; it is my new fashion accessory! Guys remember it’s going to be IN! Hahaha
So far I can say I am adapting well, I am learning the language fast, I am trying to practise non-stop in shops, from the TV and just listening and trying to answer as much as possible. Luckily Spanish is similar so I do have that great advantage.
I can’t say I have been bored yet, we are up every day by 8 am and the day flies by and by 22.00 we are so tired! Today we started cleaning and that is already a day gone....Can you believe that? And no, you will not see me just yet with the straw hat and dungarees!

Mi nueva vida a comenzado en el pueblo, y aunque no hemos parado de desempaquetar, y conocer el lugar te puedo decir que mi niveles de estres se han reducido un 120%
Pensarias o me preguntaras, una chica joven con estres, como puede ser? Pues si, yo como muchas personas he sufrido de los presiones diarias y el caos de la ciudad. Me he dado cuenta que la vida aqui no solo es la moda, maquillaje o solo el echo de siempre ser lo mejor.
Aqui la vida es vivir e intentar disfrutar de los detalles que tenemos en la vida, por ejemplo la comida. No digo que la gente aqui no sufre ningun tipo de estres, llevo menos de una semana aqui para comparar pero si veo que la vida es muy diferente. No hay trafico, ni polucion o suciedad.
La casa es una maravilla, es enorme, pero de momento solo utilizo dos habitaciones ya que hace mucho frio y la casa tarda mucho en calentarse. Tengo ganas de que llegue cliente para poder calentar la casa y para que llegue la primavera por fin. Ando por la casa con mucha ropa puesto, con guantes, bufanada y gorra. Llevo un calefactor como si fuese un bolso, es mi nuevo acesorio de moda!! Recuerda que este invierno el calefactor es MODA! jejeje
De momento me estoy adaptando bien y voy aprendiendo el idioma. Practico constantemente hasta en mis suenyos. Suerte que el Espanyol es muy parecido.
No puedo decir que me he aburrido de momento, no he tenido tiempo, ademas el dia pasa volando. Nos levantamos a las 8 y a las 22 ya estamos en la cama. Te lo puedes creer? Y no me veras en un peto y gorro de paja aun! jejeje
Yeay!!!! Finally they arrive :o)so lucky to be in such a beautiful place XX
