Otoño/Autumn

September 21, 2009 | Words By: Guille

opener2Otoño es una época de cambios.

Es abrigarse, es la mejor luz del año. Es cafés calientes viendo una mar cabreada. Es un paseo mañanero por Oviedo en un día lluvioso. Es Amagüestu – sidra dulce, castañas y musica folk. Es viento Sur, es hacer kilómetros. Es buscar lugares resguardados donde entrar con el tablón. Es surfear solo. Es la alegría de volver a ver de nuevo a Tony Butt, es conocer a gente nueva. Es sesiones de olas grandes, es occidente y oriente a la vez. Es verdes y marrones, es paisaje, es Asturias en su máxima expresión.

otono2Se nota que es mi época preferida del año?

Ocupen sus asientos, el otoño está a punto de empezar.

otonoAutumn is a time of change. It’s shelter and the best light of the year. Hot coffee in front of a raging sea. It’s an Oviedo morning walk on a rainy day. It´s Amagüestu – sweet cider, roasted chestnuts and folk music. South wind, driving for miles. It’s seeking sheltered places where I can go with my longboard. Surfing alone. It’s good to see Tony Butt again. It’s meeting new people. It’s big-wave sessions, west and east simultaneously. Green and brown, landscape, Asturias at its best.

otono-4Can you tell that it’s my favourite season?

Take your seats – autumn is about to begin.
