From Chloe- “Read this quote tonight that was written about you: throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country. – Anais Nin”

I can only hope.

Day 3 in Madrid and things didn’t go as planned at first. I didn’t sleep (again) because of jet lag. The trains were sold out and so I decided to stay another day. It all worked out though. I met Juan for lunch and we had Tortilla de Patatas which is a very traditional dish in Spain. I’m grateful for my time in Madrid and the experience of this culture. If gives me broader perspective to.. everything.  I could live here.    Like Paris, I like the way they live, mode of transportation, food, perspective of life and I just want to be a part of that for a while.  Maybe not forever, but I want to experience it as it if is my own and know what it is like for it to feel natural as if I had been here all along.

Today I will walk the city, camera in hand.
