Hi felin!
The return of the native
1980 was the year when I first went back to the small village where I was born. I was only three years old when my parents went to settle in the States which 1 now consider my home. But like a lot of first-generation Americans whose parents were constantly talking about 'home' as another country, I was curious to find out more about this place from where we had emigrated more than twenty years before. The reason why I hadn't visited the land of my parents earlier -something that I now regret – perhaps had something to do with the way which they would always talk about it as if it were my real home, whose for me was the States. The first impression I got on arriving in Santa Maria was the heat, which was unbearable. The people which were waiting to greet me at the airport were all incredibly friendly and they spoke of the time when I was a child in the village as if it was yesterday. My grandfather, whose eyes filled with tears when he saw me, and who I would be staying with while on the island, looked incredibly like my father, whose hair had recently started to go grey. The village itself, which was a two-hour journey up the mountain, was simply stunning.
My dear felin,
please, please, please, don't be too severe. I've done my best.
