The first word I learned to say is guaita. My paternal grandmother would take me for a walk in the trolley, and as we wandered around she would point at things with her finger and say: “Guaita Laia, guaita!”. She spoke a particular Catalan, she would say guaita instead of mira (look at). Guaitar means to watch carefully, analysing what is observed. Vigilant. Jo guaito 👀️
This is a place where I share ideas, favourite quotes from what I am reading, poems and other bits and bobs that need further development, or that might not be developed or taking shape beyond these lines, but that I need to remember and see collected somewhere. Documenting the process? Notebook or backstage.
