      Spaniards at Reber Rock

      Reber Rock Farm · August 28, 2014 · Leave a Comment

      I’m María, a 20-year-old girl from Madrid, journalism student, and through the coincidences of life met Nathan Henderson, a long time ago.

      Nate met my older brother Pablo in Madrid, studying Geology, and they struck up a good friendship during that year that he “lived” almost full time at my house.

      Over time they kept in touch and Nate was in our lives like one of my family; sharing vacation, food, stories and songs that I still remember almost 10 years later. And as a good adopted Spaniard, he has take care of my brother every time he came to USA and now he has had to take care of me.

      This is how me (a city girl who the most she has done in the field is take a walk), came to this community of young people wanting to change society today and make a difference in this farming community.

      I’ve been here about 3 weeks, and Racey, the lovely fiancée of my half brother Nate, asked me to share my adventures of farming from the perspective of a city girl and journalist. So, this is my way of sharing with the world my experiences, because pictures say more than a thousand words and my time here is very limited.

      My first week here was with my brother Pablo, of whom I have spoken before, and his girlfriend Belén. And these are some of the images that define our early days of American stay.

      (Get ready to practice your spanish! Or just read the English captions under the spanish…)

      ESPAÑOLES EN USA

      Soy María, una chica de 20 años madrileña estudiante de periodismo que por casualidades de la vida conoció a Nathan Henderson, hace ya mucho tiempo.

      Nate conoció a mi hermano mayor Pablo en Madrid estudiando Geologia y entablaron una buena amistad durante ese año que “vivió” practicamente a tiempo completo en mi casa.

      Pasado el tiempo ellos siguieron en contacto y Nate siguió en nuestras vidas como uno más de la familia; compartiendo vacaciones, comida, historias y alguna que otra canción que aún recuerdo.

      Y como buen español adoptado ha cuidado de mi hermano cada vez que el ha venido a USA y ahora le ha tocado cuidar de mi.

      Asi es como yo, una chica de ciudad que lo más que ha hecho en el campo es pasear, he llegado a esta comunidad de gente universitaria joven y con ganas de cambiar un poco la sociedad de hoy en día. En definitiva, esta comunidad de granjeros.

      Llevo aqui aproximadamente 3 semanas; algo más, y Racey, encantadora prometida de mi medio hermano Nate, me propuso compartir mis aventuras de granjera desde el punto de vista de una chica de ciudad y periodista en potencia. Así que, esta es mi forma de compartir con el mundo mis experiencias, porque las imagines dicen más que mil palabras y mi tiempo aquí es bastante limitado.

      Mi primera semana aqui fue junto con mi hermano Pablo, del que ya os he hablado antes, y su novia Belén. Y estas son algunas de las imágenes que definen nuestros primeros dias de estancia aqui.
