A Work in Progress

Many of my friends and family have asked me to continue 'blogging' while I am travelling.  So the first decision was giving my blog a name which would indicate what my life has been about these past two years.  So I decided to call it 'Finding the Way', which reflects the fact I have walked two Caminos, otherwise known as the Way of Saint James and my own personal journey of self-discovery.  Those of you who haven't followed me in the past can find my other two blogs at margitalagrotta-cf.blogspot.com and margitalagrotta-cp.blogspot.com. 

I consider my life a work in progress and travelling has always been in my blood.  Two years ago I was able to apply for Latvian citizenship and because of Latvia's entry into the EU in 2004, I was able to obtain an EU passport.  This has given me the ability to travel without too many restrictions so far.  But I am discovering that in Spain, where I am currently, you can be considered a resident of Spain if you are in the country for more than 6 months within any calendar year.  So as I navigate these waters, I'm sure I will discover specific laws pertaining to non-residents.  But enough of the mundane aspects of my travels.  On to the good stuff....
