Ordino




This picture was taken by my boyfriend about a year ago. The village which the snowflakes are covering is Ordino[http://www.ordino.ad/], one of the seven parishes of Andorra. It's a quiet place surrounded by mountains and crossed by a small river. Only 3,000 inhabitants live there, all in cute rustic houses made of stone and wood. Ordino is a really picturesque village, all white in the winter, full of bloomed colorful flowers in the summer. If you visit Andorra you just have to go there. The difference between the highly visited commercial capital (Andorra la Vella) and Ordino is enormous.
