Carolina: “I have everything I need: a smile and a willingness to live”

The italian girls Carolina and Chiara sit on the stone bench that is visible all along Avenida de Beiramar. They face each other and share a bottle of white wine while they eat something. Both are on their bare feet. Their peace of mind leads to a relaxed atmosphere in front of the Galician harbour of Vigo.

Yurie Lacruz: “For me happiness is that people I love are alright”

ESCRS congress, celebrated this year in Hospitalet de Llobregat, brings together ophthalmologists from all over the world and professionals whose job is related to the field. Yurie Lacruz works in the event as a hostess. Wearing black blazer, black skirt, white shirt and black sparkling shoes, the girl from Mallorca is particularly accustomed to perform her job. Her green eyes are the reference point of her face for those who hold a conversation with her. The maximum expression of her smile delights visitors.

Mayke: “For me happiness is to enjoy good moments”

In the garden from Vigo that divides the parallel avenues of Rúa Montero Ríos and Avenida de Beiramar, sitting down, is Mayke. Two Quechua rucksacks surround her. One is hers and the other one belongs to her son Miro. She holds a Mahou can with a hand. She dresses up with printed jacket and hairband, a pink T-Shirt and greyish trousers. Her serene energy is the one that a pilgrim owns just by watching life pass by at a city which is orphan of hours and minutes. She observes, smiles and lights up the atmosphere with her crystalline and peaceful gaze.

Ricardo: “For me happiness is to feel alright with people I love”

A few metres away from A Laxe Mall, in front of Real Club Náutico of Vigo, I meet a portuguese couple. Despite my attempts to begin a conversation in which the visual exchange is posible, the sunglasses that both wear make that mission impossible.
