It is my hometown. I was born in it and lived there until I was 21. As obvious, I love that city and go there every time, not just to be with family, but also to remind me of where I came from and who I really am.
These last years, the increase in the tourism as made it possible to recover most of the old part of town. That means that every year that I go there, there is something new and beautiful to see that I had never seen before.
The historical landmarks, the beautiful views, the mix of the beach and the city, the weather, the food. I could be here all day, and no matter how many photos I take, it will never be enough to portrait the wonder of the place.
This year's photos are just a few, of the ones I promise to take every time I go there.
