I have thought a lot of thoughts these last days. About my life, about being here in Spain, about my future and my past.
It is funny that now I have been here in Barcelona for 7 months and
finally I am beginning to have everything worked out. I have all my
documents and registrations (more or less), my Spanish is getting better
and still this is the time when I start feeling just a little bit
homesick. Or on the other hand, maybe I am feeling homesick because this
is the first time during the 7 months where I have actually had the
time to feel homesick. But don't put to much in it, it is still nothing
serious.
Mostly I miss things like Falaffel, Creme Fraiche and riding my
bike. On the other hand I am also beginning to feel a bit of frustration
with certain aspects of the Spanish lifestyle. Like the way they work.
It is just amazing. Needed to get the Internet changed
for a Cable connection. It required quite a lot of wires and at some
point these wires needed to go through a wall. Too bad the electrician
was too lazy to go and pick up his power drill in his car and he just
made the hole with a screwdriver and a hammer. Needless to say the hole
did not end up exactly as planned.
Anyways, the Danish and the Spanish
people are very different though we are so close.
That is the beauty of diversity.
