The Green Dog Chronicles. My New Life in Navia
Life through the Green Dog lens. Secrets of a bilingual outsider scratching the surface of life in search of the Truth
I arrived conspicuously, in the middle of a Havana evening, after making my family wait for over twelve hours. I had not been, it seems, too eager to see the world so I about-faced and took a nap. Perhaps it was my mother who silently urged me to stay put for a while... Continue Reading →
Se queda uno pasmado de oír ciertas opiniones sobre el caso "Manada". Por lo visto los implicados han pedido que se respete su privacidad hasta que concluya el juicio, que no se publiquen sus nombres ni sus imágenes. Yo me pregunto si cuando planificaron la violación de una chica y lo comentaron en... Continue Reading →
One is stunned to hear certain opinions about the "Manada" rape case.(Pamplona, Navarre, July 2016). Apparently, the accused have asked that their privacy be respected until the trial ends, that their names and images are not published.

This definitely defines me. I'm a Green Dog , living -or trying to- between generations. Ahead of... Continue Reading →
I wear red because it enlivens me and to share life. For all those who are no longer here. For all those who cannot raise their voice. For each and every one of my Warriors. For all those who don't see. For all those who can't help but see. Today we celebrate Working Women's Day.... Continue Reading →
The storm has passed but the beach has disappeared. The sand dunes have invaded the picnic area and they have given it a lunar aspect.
To all those who dare criticise the carers of elderly people: I hope you never find yourself confined to your house for days because your parent is ill and you have no one to delegate on. I hope you don't have to watch opportunities go by because you know you can't afford to take... Continue Reading →
