Casa en huelga, Madrid, Spain

March 29, 2012

Casa en huelga, 29 Marzo, Madrid, España. This is my old neighborhood – Puente de Vallecas. Not the most exciting part of the city.

This was the day of one of the general strikes, when virtually nothing happened. Usually, in our strikes, nothing happens.

But sometimes things do.

About the Author Daniel

How did I end up in Spain? Why am I still here almost 20 years later? Excellent questions. With no good answer... Anyway, at some point I became a blogger, bestselling author and contributor to Lonely Planet. So there's that. Drop me a line, I'm happy to hear from you.
