Una Gran Familia
Kerry Rice
Una Gran Familia- a communion between people and landscape. Andorra, a tiny principality tucked away in the snowy Pyrenees, is famous in Europe for its ski resorts and tax free economy. Far more remarkable is the relationship its citizens enjoy with its magnificent landscapes. The stone which, by law, is used in the construction of all new buildings, is no longer quarried from the mountains, but imported from neighbouring countries. An active life spent working the land, eating its produce and wandering those mountains, contributes to the longevity of Andorra's inhabitants- it boasts the world's second highest life expectancy. With almost no crime and no defense force to speak of, the country exists in an uncommon state of peace. Each stunning Andorran landscape is an example of a harmonious partnership with nature- each valley houses a few stone buildings, each house lies in the shadow of a majestic peak.
