Just back frm a week-long research residency at #Faberllull #Olot. 10 theatre researchers from (or specialising in contemp theatre from) Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay, Basque Country/Galicia, Catalunya, France, Italy and the UK (me). The most nourishing academic experience ever, hands down

If you are planning to visit Spain for your holidays, please do consider alternatives to AirBnB - tourist flats are a big driver in the country's housing emergency, together with property speculation. Less flats available for long-term rent at spiralling places: folk simply can't afford to live.

After much forceful swaying under Storm Éowyn, a tree eventually came down in one of the neighbouring back courts. Thankfully, it didn't seem to cause any additional harm or damage... What a restless day, everything howling, swirling, trembling.

To the right of the image, the back of a row of blonde tenement buildings. To the left, trees. One of these has fallen and is brushing against the facade of one of the buildings. Grass and bare tree branches on the foreground.
