Just where I left you.

I know when you rent a flat you shouln't get attached to it but I will always think about the number 3 of Glen street in Edinburgh as the first real home I have ever had.
I will always remember the first time I saw it and the day I left it. I still miss it...

Things I see, I do these days

In Scotland, my days are filled with indoor activities these days. Since I have signed up to do some study, it has been so difficult for me to properly rest. My brain is constantly thinking... and other corner, my heart is screaming to do more creative stuff. It's all to do with balance, perhaps. It will soon be over, then I will be able to appreciate how creative stuff can release all negative powers sometimes accumulate within you.

I promise, to myself, that I will treat me with many more crocheting, painting and any things tickles my creativity in coming months!!

Porco Rosso wait for us.

If here is something that I really missed in Scotland, it was the chance to go out as much as I wanted, to be outdoors all the time.
Now, I must admit that choosing to be an illustrator is not the smartest move if you want to be outdoor all the time but now that we moved here I am enjoying it as much as I can.
Today we´ll go and watch the Red Bull Air Race , I hope I´ll manage to get some nice pictures. Porco Rosso we are coming!!!

When you cannnot sleep.

When you cannot sleep you watch tv, you have a glass of hot milk, you count the sheep, you make a list of things you want to do the next morning, you make a list of the cleaning products you need to buy, the cleaning you need to do, the places you want to see, the people you want to meet, the animals you would like to save if there was an ecological disaster, the people that influenced your art, the people that influenced your life, you imagine your wedding day even if you say you'll never get married, you imagine your funeral because at some point you'll get one for sure.
I could go on and on about the things I am doing in my head these days to fall back to sleep but nothing is working so if you have any suggestions please come forward and send me back to that beautiful place that is my head asleep.

Let´s take a walk monkey and bring your bottle!

There are things when you walk in the street that make you wish you had your camera with you, just for a second and then you forget all about it.
This time I had my camera and I am happy I won´t forget it!

Ahh haa, found the cable!

Here are some pictures of the last weeks in Barcelona.
Hope you´ll like them , Naoko!

Last Sunday, on the beach with bread still warm and the paper.

Still a nice day, good enough to swim!

A show for the celebration of Fiestas de la Mercé.

On the Tibidabo.

Just keep moving...

After almost 6 years in Scotland at the end of June I moved to Barcelona.
Big change, I must say.
I am not ready yet to write about the moving and there are so many things that still feel upside down that it will take me a while to adjust but the truth is that changes are good for you, they test you and they give you the chance to change what you don't like of your life.
I am still looking for a job and this seems to be a big challenge but I'll find a good one, one that doesn't feel like a punishment every morning, possibly even one I could enjoy.
I have lost the cable to download my pictures but I'll find it and post some here, some of the new flat and the new city, a new amazing city, ready to be explored and enjoyed!
