She is 74 years old. Nostalgia overcomes her when she recalls her honeymoon in 1972. "I was 21 and we went to Murcia. Newly married, we had no money. It was my father who paid for our plane ticket. It was the first time I left Mallorca alone." They were seven very intense days. "We visited the Mar Menor and Cartagena, where my husband had served his military service. We also made a trip to Alicante to visit the imposing Santa Bárbara Castle. In the end, though, I was already homesick. We missed the return flight and had to extend our stay for another day. I cried when I saw my father." That experience would take a long time to repeat. "A few years later, I had two children, and the expenses piled up, so we had to cut out any indulgences."</p>]]></description>
