6th Entry - missing the sea.

I was born in an oasis, a town at the threshold of the Sahara desert.

When I was 5 my family moved to the coast, and I spent all my youth, every summer by the sea.

I remember waking up at 6:00 am most days, and going on an early dip.

These were great days for me, when I experienced a special relationship to the Mediterranean Sea.

Now many decades later, I live in London, UK, and I do miss the Sea.

For eight years I lived in Brighton, East Sussex, and it was nice to be by the Sea, now this too is becoming a distant memory.
