What actually happens when you trade Roman traffic for palm trees and move to a small island mid-life? In this episode, Francesca, a literary translator from Italy, shares the real story of starting something fresh in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The good, the hard, and the unexpectedly peaceful. We talk about flat-hunting headaches, fast friendships (and faster goodbyes), long walks along the coast, and how it feels to slow down in a place where Carnaval lasts two months. Thoughtful, funny, and quietly brave; this one’s for anyone who’s ever wondered what “a new chapter” really looks like.
