From the back cover: Meet Chris Stewart, the eternal optimist. At age seventeen Chris retired as the drummer of Genesis and launched a career as a sheep shearer and travel writer. He has no regrets about this. Had he become a big-time rock star he might never have moved with his wife Ana to a remote mountain farm in Andalucia. Nor forged the friendship of a lifetime with his resourceful peasant neighbour Domingo... nor watched his baby daughter Chloe grow and thrive there... nor written this book. Fate does sometimes seem to know what it's up to.

I loved this book! It was such a warm and lovely set of stories to read... Can't wait to read more! My favourite was Domingo, the man sounded like a true MacGyver! The bad thing about this book is that it does not help at all if you have the Spain-fever...

Well. I do wanna go back although any place in the peninsula would do :D

Was a bit disappointed, I love to read of Spain written by a Spanish author.
