As promised in the last edition of this Newsletter, I would love to take you over the Mediterranean Sea to the Balear Islands and visit the Locura Cotidiana Team in Palma de Mallorca. It all started when Omar’s daughter Leticia came to study Fine Arts at the University in Barcelona. During this time Leti, as we call her, made some extra money working with us in the Locura workshop. Being very smart and with her own sunny personality, she soon became our girl for just everything. I remember us making jokes about her opening her own store on the island, which at that time seemed quite far fetched ... Well, after finishing her studies she went back to Mallorca and eventualy - did it!! Even though she could count on our help, most of the planning and work she did by herself. I can't tell you how proud her father was (and still is!!) So here comes the Mallorca Team: |
Leticia - Palma | |
Leti was born 34 years ago in Argentina. When she was 6, she moved to Spain where her father Omar already resided. With her mother, they settled in Palma de Mallorca. Apart from the time of her studies in Barcelona (specialising in photography) she has always been faithful to the beautiful island. For 8 years she worked in television and advertising, and 6 years ago she opened Locura Cotidiana Palma, in the heart of the city. Leti has many artisan and artist friends. It came naturally that she started to expose unique paintings and sculptures by local artists which converted Locura Palma more into a gallery than a simple shop. Have a look at her Facebook and you can see for yourself. And the most beautiful news that has us all excited: Leti is expecting her first child in late June! : D |
In the next Newsletter, I want you to meet the newest member of the Locura Group. Established only in the last few months, it is still a kind of secret. It will come as a surprise to you that in order to visit this team, we will have to change countries even continents. So, look forward to our next edition!
Have fun Pia
