50



The time has come.

It is possible that the most creative and lively part be over
It is also possible that worthy things lie ahead
For now, an encounter with 50 at

Holworthy times 2


Anything to report from these last six weeks?
Just to say that the new food for thought is cooking (sometimes boiling) in my fragmented brain.
But, spectacularly, the contravocitos continue their very easy entry into a foreign systems without signs of particular effort or strain. Yesterday climing up on in-door walls, today a visit to the museum of fine arts (some protests here, given the choice).
I have some doubt on the relative interest of routine (yes, so soon, so present) invading the new existance, or keeping up with the exceptionality (much more work!).

He has always been complete



The challenge here in Boston, is contemplating a sea of possibility. Measuring the possibility against the background of capability. That brings me to a phrase in the lucid book by Aleksandar Hemon:

"...he had always been complete. He had finished the work of becoming himself long before any one of us would imagine such as feat was possible"

New York excitement


In a weekend of sabbatical within the sabbatical, the contravoces approached NY. The first photo of the travellers is here posted.
There is not much that should be said about the otherworldly hyperactivity, noise, smells and excitement of the place. I can barely survive it.
The arrival back to Boston seemed a transfer through the "Tunel del tiempo" (The time tunel) to another era.

Holworthy times


Here they are, they enter the yellow school buses. Happy to be there. What about the language barrier?

Holworthy - the street address where the year will unfold.....

Obelix in Baule





The time arrives to say bye to Baule and to friends. And it was in the best spirit of the invincible people - eating a wild hog - javalì - sanglier. Early morning the cooking device is installed by the art of Gaston.com. The young crowd contemplate the result 4 hours later. And it is time to eat!
