Finding slowness in an ancient stone barn ✨ In the Cantabrian mountains of Northern Spain, nomadic farmers once built humble stone shelters for people and livestock. Most were abandoned. Laura Álvarez returned to this tradition, restoring one forgotten housebarn into “Villa Slow.” She kept its soul—stone walls but opened it to the mountains. Laura and Lewis discovered a new rhythm: chopping wood, cooking outdoors, hiking, simply watching clouds roll over the peaks. 🏚️ ➝ 🏡 🌄 A reminder that sometimes, slowing down can bring us closer to what really matters. Would you live in a place like Villa Slow if you could? We hope you enjoy this repost. Let's make our corner of the world better (that thing we can do). Best wishes.
