WHAT YOU MISS WHEN YOU AREN´T AT HOME

  Sometimes you don´t know to appreciate what you have at home until you go to other place. I have been my whole life living in the same place, in Valencia (Spain), and I had never thought about the things I would miss if I had to go far. But even if you love travelling, and even if is something that you have always wanted to do, is impossible not to miss a lot of things from home.

                    My town, El Puig, a little village near Valencia

  I arrived to Oklahoma two months ago, and this time has been enough to miss a lot of things of Spain, and to appreciate that anything is as comfortable as home. I miss Valencia, its orange groves and its beaches. I miss too the sunny Sundays eating Paella with the family in the open air, or in a restaurant close to the beach. I miss to walk to everywhere, without using the car for everything, and a good Spanish dinner with “tapas”, “sangría”, and the best company: my friends.

  I miss also to walk around my town and to know everyone. To say “Hello” to every single person that you see in the street.  And of course, I miss all my people. My family and my friends, and all those people who make my life easier and happier.

  I have to say that I don´t change anything for the time I´m having here, but anyway, it´s impossible not to think sometimes in everything you miss from home.  The Spanish jam, potatoes omelet, the beach,  parties on the street, to play in the band of my town, my house, my family, my friends, and sometimes even my university! But, there is no doubt that everything can wait a couple of months more, because right now I´m so happy in Oklahoma and nobody can make me go back to Spain!
