"Great to see you both so excited! The blogs were a great read.
Makes me wish i was there. There is something magical about the agrarian lifestyle, one is so connected to the earth. To the cycles of light and dark, the changing seasons, the living things. Is it the living things? I am surrounded by dead things: painted walls, carpet, curtains, electronics, not a living thing in sight except me. Kind of a lonely existence isn't it to be so separated from life? My feet barely touch the ground through my thick boots and socks as I move quickly from my home shell to my mobile one so I can get to the work shell. We work so hard to block the living world out. And then there's folks like your campesino's embracing life with every step. Aware of and celebrating the rhythms of life with every breath."

The living things most connected to me at Finca la Florida were the mosquitos. Did they ever sign a truce with you guys, or did they disappear in some season?
