words

sentimental, reflective, content, curious
dancing, talking, sunbathing, wrapping up
chocolate con churros, skype, café con hielo, art and design books
Plaza Mayor, Retiro, Palos de la Frontera, Madrid

I can't be bothered to put the words in sentences, I just remember the feeling of walking home at 7am after having had a very good night with people I had just known (thanks Nadine and Mirjam to invite me :)) and after having eaten chocolate con churros at 6am. Plaza Mayor is extremely beautiful at that hour of the day, and even Lavapies has that early morning peace to it. The fountain at Embajadores was shining in the light of the sun not yet up and I know I'll never forget the colour of the sky, just enjoying the magical moment.

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.
