May spring come.

I’m rather in a sentimental mood right now. I left Madeira this morning and I miss the island at once. I guess that means I liked it there. And yes, it has, very much so.

As always, a picture is worth a thousand words, so here we go:

I read that the island would have associations with Bali and dismissed it as a ridiculous thought. But the truth is, that at one point or another you really feel those Southeast-Asian vibes. There is the lush of (sub)tropical vegetation with all the ferns, bird-of-paradises and palm trees, there are the picturesque waterfalls, the volcanic mountains and the blue sea all around… in short: it’s a dream!
