Spain

Not quite a destination

Spain is awkward to file under travel. I was born there, so it is less a destination than the map everything else starts from.

That is why this page works differently. Instead of pretending the country is one trip, it breaks it into regions: places I know well, places I return to, places with photographs and stories, and places whose boxes are still waiting to be filled.

The map below is the real beginning of this archive.
