May is there, bringing us more daylight and more mosquitoes ;-) All Northern Europe seems to have a holiday here, at the moment. The sea is beautiful, big waves.
Fall is almost here, and that is good. I love the shorter days, the prospect of getting back to standard time (even if it not the time that corresponds to our meridian), eating chestnuts, taking longer walks without dying of the heat. Finding some chestnut trees on the path from Pampaneira to Bubión (province of Granada, Spain)
It is summer, it is too hot, but we went back to a place that we love, the "Casa forestal" in Alhaurín el Grande (near Málaga, Spain), and we could chill there a bit (forgetting for a short moment all pictures and reports of destroying, killing, suffering etc. we had seen about Gaza, when there is so little we can do). Two years ago, a huge forest fire destroyed a lot in this area, but this place has been preserved (the flame stopped just above it). Enjoy!

I find it difficult to look back and to look forward because I am someone who lives in the present. Since I don't know what tomorrow will bring, I don't want to worry too much about what I will do, won't do or should avoid. But one thing is certain: in 2024, I will hold on, just as I did in 2023. Trying not to hurt others, trying to live reducing my carbon footprint. Living with eyes wide open to see beauty wherever it is. Making art out of it. May love and happiness be yours this holiday season! Water greens in Benalmádena (Andalusia, Spain) Shells on the beach in Benalmádena
