Fresh, natural air

Here, I will explain why Tolox is a corner where I have had most of my best memories. Almost twelve years ago as a child with chronic asthma and bronchitis, much of my childhood was spent plugged into a machine which transmitted aerosols that allowed me to breathe normally (although some nights I would give my family the odd scare). I remember how my mother in a day at the doctor's office, desperately asked the doctor if there was anything they could do that was independent of aerosol use. Despite good doctors not believing much in "natural medicine", he told her that she could try taking me for a few months to the Tolox spa to get away from the dirty air of the city so I could breathe the fresh air of nature (perhaps from here comes my mother's passion for greenery).

My parents rented a huge house in Tolox (I still remember the street where it was). I remember how I suddenly exchanged my machine sprays and breathed in true air. Every time I went out of that resort where I was the only little girl, my parents bought me a magazine and I escaped with my sister to the river that passed behind the little spa. There was nothing more beautiful, we would sit and read a magazine of cartoons while listening to the sound of the river and slide down the rocks. Months passed and I needed less of these aerosols ... That year in that safe place, I took my machine home and my asthma stopped. After that year in the wild, I returned to my house in the center of Malaga and I did not go to Tolox. At Christmas I told this story to my partner while we were heading to Yunquera to climb the turret (as we told you in one of the first publications), and I was taking pictures, camera in hand, we made a detour and I recollected those memories. I went to the Spa (they were refurbishing), I went to that river, I remembered my past self. Now you can understand why it is my special place.
