Urueña, Spain, 1992 ish. I’m standing just outside the village walls with all the kids in the village. Every village’s kids were always curious about me and wanted to show me around! I’m putting together a show called “Stories of my Mediterranean Childhood” for the Montreal storytelling festival, and this memory cane to mind... the skirt was my fave - got it in Cuba c. 1990! #mediterranean #childhood #storytelling #curious #urueña #spain #plainsofspain #village #pueblo #aldea #castle #villagewalls #ruralspain #españarural #mountainvillage #storytelling #mylife #traveler #childtraveler #childperformer 🎶🎶🎶🌍🌍🌍✈️✈️✈️🏰🏰🏰⛰⛰⛰🏡🏡🏡

Nothing like the streets for music and art...! I’ve been performing at Pedestrian Sundays in Kensington Market for the past 13 years or so, and what I get back from the community is without fail more than I give.
