So, a month has passed "volando", as they say here, and we're settling back into life in Barcelona. Our return on the 23rd was greeted by so many family and friends it was overwhelming and I, of course, couldn't help shedding a tear. And so it has continued. Every day, we bump into someone who doesn't know we're back and we recount just a small part of what we have experienced. "How was the trip?" I'm running out of adjectives as none of them seem to do justice to what was definitely the most incredible of adventures. What started as a ‘maybe we could do this ...' became the most fantastic of journeys and sharing it with the others was the best part. Incredibly, or possibly not, we have not yet started to repeat our stories because we had so many experiences. And we haven't even started to subject our friends to photo sessions!

What we did and what we experienced cannot be summed up. The question "which was your favourite country?" is impossible to answer as each was new and awaiting discovery.  Some were easier and some more difficult, for various reasons, but we don't regret any of our choices and we left each having made new friends and in every case saying "we must come back here!" Hopefully we will.

Com s'acostuma a dir, ha passat un mes volant mentre ens reincorporàvem a la nostra vida de Barcelona. El dia del nostre retorn ens van rebre tants familiars i amics que no vaig poder evitar emocionar-me i, és clar, vessar alguna llàgrima. Aquesta rebuda continua cada vegada que ens trobem algú que no sabia del nostre retorn i li expliquem una mica del nostre viatge. "¿Com us ha anat?" Ja no em queden adjectius i cap fa justícia al que ha estat l'aventura més increïble de totes. El que vam començar amb un "potser podríem fer això..." s'ha convertit en el viatge més fantàstic, i compartir-lo amb els altres va ser el millor. Encara que sembli mentida, o potser no, encara no ens hem començat a repetir quan expliquem les nostres històries ja que hem viscut tantes experiències diferents. ¡I això que encara no hem començat a mostrar als nostres amics totes les fotos!

El que hem fet i viscut no es pot resumir. La pregunta "¿quin és el teu país favorit?" és impossible de respondre, ja que cada un era nou per a nosaltres i esperava ser descobert. Alguns van ser més fàcils i altres més difícils, per diverses raons, però tot i així no ens penedim de cap de les nostres eleccions i en tots hi hem deixat amics i sempre ens hem anat dient: "Aquí hi haurem de tornar algun dia". Espero que ho fem.
