Blanca is the ideal place for the slow movement, to enjoy the charm
of its landscapes and to relax and live better. One cannot hurry
the act of creation. Maybe this is a reason that we find in this
village so many painters. They all need pace, slowness, silence to
be creative and productive. I came from Holland, 40 years ago, and
hated in that country the long queues of cars, the great haste of

of international business I came to the conclusion that there for
me are only two places to live well: Haiwai and Blanca. This book
has been written for you in ten lenguages: English, German, Dutch,
Italian, French, Swedish, Russian, Arabic, Japonese and Chinese.
