petra

​

 

Being with Petra is the experience of a lifetime.

 

You are so much bigger than this place and this time. Yes, you are an eternal, beautiful rose, red like your namesake. Yes, you are as mysterious and seductive as a flamenco dancer. And being in the dance with you has transformed me. Just being with you.  But your gift is not the ancestral wisdom born, like you, in Gerona. Nor is it the billion things you know from your voracious reading and travel. No, you are larger than life. You enlighten. You shine.  You reveal spaces and places where there is no time, where there is only truth.

​

And all the times we shared in French, Spanish, Italian, English, talking about books, travel, facelifts, love, diets, men, shoes, nuns, yoga, flamenco, opera, paella, turron, the endless charm of Europe, the magnetic pull of the holy land—all of it enchanting, just being with you.
