So here it is...

My video from Pyrenees is ready and you can watch it here:

GR11 - Journey through the Pyrenees from Tomas Wotan Suski on Vimeo.



It is my farewell to Spain video... I had brilliant times there and I learned a lot of new things, met some lovely people. All those memories will remain with me forever. The final long walk through the mountains was both very physically and mentally exhausting, but at the same time, every day of my journey I was just one step away from an amazing beauty.
I know it changed me. It will probably take me some time to figure out where I'm heading now but one thing is for sure, that I'm not the same anymore.
Even now, weeks after, among many daily routine/money/reality/human relationships/ problems I am able to close my eyes and instantly go far away, to the quiet place in the forest, where I sat down for a break, or a mountain ridge overlooking one of many valleys I climbed through. I can be there and feel the wind in my hair, the sun rays touching my face... I feel like I've never completed GR11. Whenever I close my eyes I'm still walking.

Pirineos Adventure

The long walk - GR11 in spanish Pyrenees has been completed, and I got some amazing footage. As soon as the video is done I will post a link here.

Unfortunately that will be the last blog entry, as Filming in Spain is over and I'm creating another blog soon, called Filming in Poland. Online very soon!

Things I'm gonna miss from Madrid

lovely flat at Lola Membrives with my best flatmates - Sami, Flora y Tomas
Chinese shop from downstairs
Beer or whiskey at the terraza, looking at the cityscape
Boats in el Retiro
Teleferico ride to Casa de Campo
Eating bocadillo de calamares at Plaza Mayor
Tapas at Malaspina
Botellones and the night life
The best metro ever
Going to Sierra de Guadarrama and my favorite train to Cotos
Seeing Cuatro Torres from miles outside the city
Sun sun sun

and probably a lot more things...

I will miss Madrid a lot.
