Lovely piece, it's a beautiful thing to enjoy everyday of life!

I wonder if you had lived your first 50 in Valencia whether you'd still feel the same way? Or is it the contrast with your previous life? Or maybe something in-between or entirely unrelated? It's amazing either way, just curious 🤔

I loved most of the first half of my life and often felt ambitious. The last few have been pretty incredible - the function of being with a wonderful/the right person and developing a better sense of my self in the process. Aside from that, it's all about finally living in an urban environment I have craved for a long time. This just so happens to be among the best, as a little bit of knowledge and lots of luck would have it.

Loved this piece, @Rocco! I think I mentioned before that I'm moving with my family to Valencia soon too! I was actually just there, but it didn't work out this time around. It will be different in August!

I read your entire article with a smile plastered across my face. I love how much you love Valencia, and I share that love!
