Running away..

 

These last few weeks I’ve had a need of running away from everything, yes, everything.. even jewelry, that’s why things have been quiet around the blog,shop,facebook.etc..

I am quite stubborn, and usually when things don’t go as planned, I am embarrassed to admit, I feel annoyed, like crying, like not doing anything, and whine,Oh! yes I whine… but then after I am done letting it all out, I come back to my senses,think of the good things and start planning again, thinking what could I do for my business, for time to go by faster…

Why am I sad? Right now I was meant to be in Spain, H and I have worked so hard,but there is still so much to do, so we can have everything we need over there, going to Guatemala was hard, but moving to another continent, uff is proving to be a whole other deal..we need to wait a little longer.

The future will be wonderful and is almost here, but sometimes there is a bit of desperation when something you want is so close, yet so far.

I have been taking some time for myself..

There was a quick visit to the farm, which was particularly beautiful this time of year..

Let me give you a tour of the garden.

It’s been raining a lot in the city, there was a tropical storm.. over here 6hours away, it was sunny with very little rain, just enough to make everything bloom..

We call these “Mamon chino” in Costa Rica, but found out is called a Wild Rambutan in english, anyways right now they are everyyyywhere and I could eat a thousand of them…

The colors are so beautiful, funny how I can wander in this place for so long, looking at all the flowers,

When I feel like running away, I run away to my home, more than enough to give me that much needed boost..

Hopefully tomorrow I will have some jewelry to show, this blog needs it :)

Buenas Noches!

Waiting for the sun to come down..

Finally yesterday, while still in my forced hibernation..  I waited and waited until the sun went down to go for a walk in the afternoon.

It’s been a month of which every single minute of my time it’s been exclusively to rest and do nothing, since my body is not ready to go back to the crazy routine, I call life.. But since nothing lasts 100 years, it was about time to go out, I covered my wound and  yesterday I went out to search some fresh air, and I found it down the road from our house, by a river , where you can find giant trees responsible of filling me with the purest oxygen..

Green long empty roads that really made me forget this whole situation to give me back for a second that joy of discovering , pictures of  people working on the field (it’s the season to harvest the beans here), entire families outside in the corridor catching that little bit of wind in the afternoon,drinking coffee, looking at who’s passing by saying ” Höla” or “Buenas tardes” with a smile,and wondering who you are, here my introduction is my grandmas name and they immediately know where I come from, kids in their bicycles just running around,dogs so many dogs, having dogs is a must here, to take care of the house,of the cows, etc..

A 50yr old bridge which swings back and forth as you walk through it..

I stopped in the middle…

look down …

On one side,

Then the other..

Images that really make me happy and peaceful and that for some more  time will be the world I’m going to live in..

Hope to get some good news tomorrow..

 

On cherry blossoms, sculptures, my old neighbor that gossips a lot and pictures of strangers

Every single day of my life I walk the streets of San Jose CR… I think I’m like a bull I just go non stop till I get where I need to…
 
   

But I had never seen these two and have no Idea how long have they been up there. but well they are on a second floor and they remind me of my old neighbor which I hope has no internet conexion or interest in reading what I type…well  I tell you looked exactly like the read head.

 

 

 

It’s such a crowded city, so noisy, dirty, but every once in a while if you really try something different can be found, or one could just try to make the best of it thinking that in other cities of the world you can’t even walk around the stores and feel a bit of safety…and actually look around see all faces, all different lives.. Just people passing by could be quite interesting.

Specially this girl in green who  gave me the “ WHY WOULD YOU BE TAKING MY PICTURE”…face.. haha! In the past I did some reading, you know you could actually sue someone if they take a picture without your permit? One could be taking a pic of an ant in a wall and if some head of an angry person comes out..damn..

 I like cherry blossoms..
