Ik lig in de zon. Ik heb een bergpad beklommen en bevind me tussen bergtoppen. Ik rust uit van de klim. Het gras onder me vol krioelend leven. Spaanse dorpjes in de verte vol beweging en activiteit.

It's Full moon. We start off easy and smooth. By now I think these journeys are working really well for me.
