I am enshrouded by white grey clouds, all above and around and then as I look up the street it is clearing and they are below the little white house, white sheets stretching across the road… And further up on the high peaks – a layer of snow… I still have no voice, the internet…

Today I was caught in a storm in the mountains… I had set off for a long walk, deciding to give both my body and my voice a chance… Feet and spirit were more than willing, but as flesh is showing signs of weakness – I chose what seemed to be a wise option… Seemed…

Today has been a different day, it has felt like I have visited a new uncharted land; as if I have been on a great big journey to discover something very important and that I accomplished my task… Fortunately I had the foresight to make two vlogs yesterday… Very odd really as I didn’t anticipate…

I love this planet that we inhabit, that is now like a huge town, where news spreads fast from one end to the other… In my part of this town today, it has been a sunny bright shining day – glistening and sparkling and still; clear blue skies and silence and quiet – and a…

I am back in my office six miles high again… It seems so long since I was here and yet it was Tuesday and today it is Thursday… When I was on the treadmill this morning, I was thinking about the 40 hours I had just spent in the UK, treasuring how rich with experience…

My office on the plane; the plane my office… As we sat waiting for take off, the pilot announced further delays caused by missing our slot, possibly an hour still on board, he said, until we could leave… I never mind delays, I see them as an opportunity, it feels like somehow they give me…

‘The more I am able to understand the Spanish conversations around me, the more I realise that everyone is talking about very normal things…’ I said laughingly to Maricarmen … ‘This magical world that is revealing itself to me, is revealing quite normal…’ She laughed ‘Por supeusto… Of course – it would be wonderful if…

At the end of Anadi’s birthday celebration meal we were brought a huge heap of delicious ness, with lashings of cream and a candle burning brightly on top – this was due to my heralding birthday ness! At the beginning of the meal we planned to go the whole way, and in celebratory style enjoy…

Anadi and I clambered across the watery rocky shore line, ankle deep in warm salt water, feeling the seaweed and sand beneath our feet… A birthday run; Anadi well enough to come out to play again… We had a plan for a birthday skinny dip at the end of the beach, but today it seemed…
