I really like the tone of this piece, John, with a genuine feel for the vibe of a city that many people just pass through, ticking off the obligatory sights.

I recently set up a publication for all things Spain/Portugal/Latin America - https://medium.com/iberospherical

Would you be interested in being added as a writer to publish any more stories like this? If you like, you could actually submit this one, as it was self-published yesterday. It would then appear on the home page and I would send a link to Mastodon, plus the pub's own followers would get it in their feed.

It's early days yet, but being in the pub could give it little more exposure - we're listed in the Medium Staff 'publications accepting new writers' list which seems to attract a little traffic as well.

Just let me know if you're interested by replying to this message, and I'll add you, so you should then see Iberospherical as an option to submit the story from edit mode.

¡Saludos!
