I loved Barcelona, and kept returning, but I hadn't really thought about anywhere else in Spain. As far as I was concerned Spain was Catalunya, and that was that. But one day I was sitting in a hotel lobby talking to an American guy who insisted I should go to Madrid. I wasn't so sure. I looked at the place on the map.

The time is the early sixties, I am in my mid teens, and already I have realised that I am one of nature's wanderers. There is something not just exciting but essential in not knowing where you will sleep tomorrow. School has become intolerable, and I have got bored with sleeping under the bridges of Paris. One day I decided to get on a train and go as far south as I could. Twice I got thrown off a train for travelling without a ticket, but eventually I managed to get to Barcelona, and within a day I realised I had found an alternative home. But all that meant was that I now had a base from which to do more travelling.
