I apologize for commenting so late. (have been immersed in my own impending move) And - I absolutely get the feeling of sadness when leaving a place. That's all I want to say, really. Just good to acknowledge that we can hold more than one emotion at a time. Glad to be in Barcelona, sad to leave New Hampshire. I get it. I'm going thru the same thing.

Looking forward to your blog post on Best Neighborhoods in Barcelona for Post-Nomads!

(…actually, come to think of it, I'd pay you to write something like that for my travel blog, The Unconventional Route)

Congratulations on your new home! Great choice, in my humble opinion, we'll be there after Uzbekistan, Georgia, Turkey to spend time with my flamenco teacher early 2024. Hope to see more of your adaptation.
