Merry Xmas, people!

Image
Here comes my traditional NDS Colors sketch card to wish you all the best for these Xmas!

Yet another airport problem ...

Image
I can't believe that a service as expensive as plane trips may turn out to be so problematic and user-unfriendly. Most staff as airports either lie to you straight faced or simply don't tell you anything at all and you never get any compensation for cancelled flights, lond delays, lost connections, etc, they always go to the little trick of dangerous weather conditions (even when the rest of the planes are taking off without any apparent trouble) or mechanical problems. Just because, that way, they won't need to offer a compensation. Cloaked strikes are not helping, either. These holidays I need to make a connection at Barajas and, believe it or not, I'll pay more to get there by train, that's how reliable spanish lines seem to me at the moment.

The long way to Sierra Nevada

Image
When I was younger and dumber, I liked to hike all the way to Sierra Nevada, in Granada. I used to sketch at the beginning, when I had still enough strength to hold a pen...

From my second notebook. This is Portugal dos pequeninhos, a park in Coimbra where they've got Portugal main buildings built at small scale. Cool place, if you ask me!
