I'm feeling inexplicably homesick for Spain today

	Europe does hold a certain heart more than here, I've found. The few times I did visit, I found Spain to be quite enjoyable. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I was born in a Spanish territory, but it's strange to feel homesick since I haven't been there in decades. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I've often found that circumstance matters more than time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Time is an imposed concept, anyway (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-16 11:56 pm UTC (link)
	Indeed. Which is why I tend to prefer circumstance over time. Will you be able to visit any time soon? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Unlikely. I only just returned to work after a long time away. I shouldn't take another vacation for a while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:01 am UTC (link)
	Perhaps in the future, in that case. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:04 am UTC (link)
	I really should. What did you like most about Spain? Just curious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:11 am UTC (link)
	Make early plans so they can't be as easily interrupted. Difficult to say, as I wasn't there for a vacation. The people were kind for the most part, when I could escape and speak to them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:15 am UTC (link)
	Would it be too personal to ask what you were there for? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:18 am UTC (link)
	I was there on a political venture, an ambassador of sorts from England. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:20 am UTC (link)
	Well, that's very impressive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:22 am UTC (link)
	Not so much anymore, I'm afraid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:24 am UTC (link)
	No? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:25 am UTC (link)
	Difficult to be a politician in England if you live in California. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:26 am UTC (link)
	That's a good point, but I wasn't assuming anything. You could be here for vacation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:29 am UTC (link)
	Unfortunately not, in this case. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:31 am UTC (link)
	Well, welcome to California. The weather's nice, anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:34 am UTC (link)
	Indeed it is. Quite different from what I was used to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 12:51 am UTC (link)
	I can imagine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 12:54 am UTC (link)
	Have you ever been to England? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 01:30 am UTC (link)
	London, but that's it. For a conference. Not very exciting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 01:32 am UTC (link)
	It could be for worse things than that. London's a lovely place to visit, regardless. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 01:37 am UTC (link)
	I spent three days in a hotel conference room... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 01:38 am UTC (link)
	Then clearly you need to go back and spend three days outside that conference room. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-17 01:43 am UTC (link)
	On my way back from Spain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	praxian 2012-11-17 01:48 am UTC (link)
	Sounds like the best use of your vacation. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	easy_lover 2012-11-18 05:54 am UTC (link)
	You are from Spain as well? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	aeterno 2012-11-18 01:50 pm UTC (link)
	I was born in the Canaries, so essentially, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	easy_lover 2012-11-18 08:15 pm UTC (link)
	I am from Madrid! It is nice to meet someone from my home! (Reply to this) (Parent)
