Perhaps its people, simple, grounded in its roots, with nobility. There are some words that I read somewhere, long ago, he says, approximately: "Whoever enters reluctantly Jaén, Jaén out crying." That says it all. And do not say anything. Because we have to go to Jaen. You need to know your people, you have to walk the streets, we must see the sky ....

There were so many cameras, or mobile .... and also was not aware of what he saw, or that would leave the city later.

I left, yes, family taxation. And I cried, yes, because they left everything. Family, friends, love ...

And life again, I returned to it, three years later, after suffering a bereavement, that changed our lives forever. And there came back to feel protected, Jaén and our family because we tucked. The three years I lived on the street teacher, before coming to Manchester, when I looked out the balcony, the first thing I saw was the cathedral. An overcast day with the fog, another day with snow on their balconies, another day with clouds adorning ... I was looking at her, admiring ... It was fantastic. And everything inside me stirred. How many eyes have admired as I this picture ...? And in my retina were recorded, forever.
After I missed the. And I cried. Here you have some photos. I will continue to go up as finding more photos than I did, and scanning them
