No, it is me again trasllade of residence: Oxford south of Valencia is simply the journey proposed by this post. As many know, although he had not yet commented on the blog, some time ago I started to fulfill the dream that I express here the same three years ago, when faced, for Christmas, the final doctoral thesis.
