This is a place I long to return to forever; it would be redundant to describe the reason, but it could make it known, the desire to saturate the senses with the aroma of wild apples, walking with that dim light, characteristic of Transylvania, with the pleasant curiosity and love of its inhabitants, who Somehow it contrasts with a gloomy mist, which settles in the gloomy architecture of the mountains, forests and wooden houses, which reign in a horizon, without equal. The land, beyond a great forest. I stopped in front of a very old and dark house and in front of it a tree with some fruits that I could not distinguish. Leaning on the old wooden fence, a lady of octogenarian presence, but youthful charisma and hospitality, the same one found in the fields anywhere in the world, has come out.
"Ce fel de fructe sunt speed up?" I asked what fruits are those? The lady answers me with her characteristic surprise and wondering if she had never seen a tree of this fruit, Mere!, apples, while after slamming the door, she enters her house and two minutes later she comes out with a bag full of them and a smile , which spoke of old stories of a land where time does not pass the same, more than in the furrows of your skin. I have given him the only thing I can find and I have in my pocket, a bag of peanuts that my mother in Colombia had left in my suitcase.
She did not know what it was, because peanuts are not well known in the fields of Romania nor did she know where South America was in her world; I shrug my shoulders, but I explain to him with the same patience of his slow walk, trying to explain to him where the peanut and I came from. The light breeze blows the sign of the cross and blessings on my face from her side of the old fence, as if she were my Maria; She happily entered her house of dark woods, never to see her again, while leaving me drawn in my memory, an indelible painting in shades of autumn and ocher, for the rest of my walk. Everything was framed indelibly, a strange and memorable deja vu.
