The grounds at Hotel Nacional

Before heading out to work this morning

I got up a little earlier just so I could explore

the hotel grounds.

Black and white Desigual dress - Black patent shoes Zara 

I walked in the shadow of the tall trees.

Crossed lush green gardens, roamed the old halls,

stopped to gaze at the ocean and feel the wind.

Played with the friendly and majestic peacocks.

Overall admired the building structure.

I have to admit that when having to chose 
from a the usual modern hotel chain to one that
is almost a hundred years old… 

I will always chose the latter. 

My love, admiration and appreciation of old things transcends antiques 

and vintage garments.

Its the constant search of the soul in things, in places…

I certainly found a soul here.
