Soon, the Hotel Escandinavia in Torremolinos (Spain) will not exist anymore (as I read that it would be demolished, I ran there the day before yesterday to make a last picture of it).  This place had a lot of charm.  Of course, it was absolutely run down and the garden was in bad shape, but it was a green oasis in our concrete town. You could see birds and cats there. A peaceful place where time had stood still. A dream. Now just a memory. Hotel Escandinavia, Avenida Palma de Mallorca 4, Torremolinos (28.03.2023)

I wish I could live in the middle of tropical plants 24/7 all year round and get some money (just enough to live on) to take care of them. I am always fascinated by their variety of shapes and colors. I could have taken a lot of pictures in the Butterfly Park in Benalmádena, it is always great to be there.

Walking in nature, being just a breath or a shadow.  Coming home and playing with an editing program, and the shadow becomes... an illusion.

A normal Sunday in March. It was too late to take the train and too hot to walk next to the beach, so we stayed in the city and walked through this small piece of jungle that will surely disappear one day because construction is such a business here and nature has no rights.    Jungle in Paseo del Pan Triste in Torremolinos (Spain) Jungle and old bridge, Paseo del Pan Triste (Torremolinos, Spain)

I like to hike, but I cannot bear my inner voice. I want to hear silence instead of accusations. Birds. Wild boars. Dogs. But not the call of the past. Stairs along the small lake Peñascales in Torrelodones (Madrid, Spain)
