mucha gente me hacen falta


one experience ends and another will start soon, people I have come to love leave my life and new ones enter, and with them a new sound =)

update: I just realized, they are definitely NOT leaving my life, I'm just not gonna share the microwave, the metro ride to work, the random office moments (toni-awards and other things), the oscars con pollo, the mmm's, coffee at lizarran, the walk back home to lavapies, the red wine somewhere in a bodega, the chick flicks, the shoe shopping, ahem watching, the fajitas con pollo, the chile de arbol and whatever else that defined our life in the last 12 months - I'm not gonna share it with them anymore. But now I have friends in Mexico =) that means I know what I'm earning my money for ;-)
AND, since Madrid is just not the same anymore, I'll just enjoy what's there for the moment, and look forward to going back home where I'll finally get to meet those people that I'm missing right now... so all is good :)

My Photo
Name: sarita
Location: Switzerland

THIS IS: a personal logbook, capturing experiences, rencontres, thoughts and ideas; a way to stay in touch with family and friends, letting them know where I am, what I'm doing and how I feel I AM: a swiss farm girl, about to finish my studies at the Graduate the Institute of International Studies in Geneva, been living in India and just came back from working in Spain, coordinating AIESEC in Spains projects. I LIKE: my family, cats, Lindor chocolate, books that make me forget the world around me, connecting with people, experiencing other cultures, going out of my comfort zone, playing around with html, getting hugged, drinking milk coffee, meeting new interesting people, tea with honey, acting on my gut feeling, early mornings and late nights, talking to friends and living life consciously I DON'T LIKE: if you don't remember me, coca-cola, feeling inefficient, confrontation, lost opportunities, zero-sum games.
