It has beautiful people bathed in a beautiful light
reflected from the beautiful sea and is tranquilo – quiet,
fresh and alive.
The local Health Service actually works, the good schools are
free to all and there’s very little traffic so it is easy to park in the
centre of the sleepy neighbouring town called Palafrio. When you
shop, you go to Palafrio’s markets for your locally caught fresh fish
and other produce. Simple, loose and unpackaged food that you
carry around in your hand-woven basket feeling relaxed, having
spent time talking to your friends and eating breakfast together
sitting outside one of the little cafes in the pretty square.
Then you go home refreshed and happy, feeling at one with
a simple life built around real genuine people who share that
simplicity.
When the sun goes down you can stand on the hill above
Yapanc by El Far – The Lighthouse and watch the sun set behind
the hills to the west of Palafrio that is spread far below you, feeling
at one with the real world.
In my ‘home’ of Yapanc I have ‘Real Life’ where less is truly
more.
There’s a beautiful place in Catalonia called Yapanc.
