Thanks for your lovely comment, @shreetbn! Nice read :-)
You may be right: I'm quite fortunate with the life I've built around me. It was hard work to come so far, and it was totally worth it.

Today I'll blog post about one of the beaches on Tenerife, but then the next article will be about this great tavern I found in the City of La Laguna :-) Promised.

Have a great day!
