Galicia is a fascinating part of Green Spain, the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula, and sits in the north western most part, surrounded on two sides by the sea, on a third by Portugal, and on the fourth by the Spanish principality of Asturias.
This anthology contains stories about how the magic of Galicia drew people into its heart as well as several nuts and bolts pieces about foreigners following the dream of buying houses, renovating them and living in Galicia. Also included are stories of romance and stories about Galicia’s history, its legends, its people, and its landscape.
The Poetry section in the competition this book is based on, has grown each year and again poetry features strongly in this years anthology. Galicia is not only beautiful and mysterious and ancient, it is also one of the Celtic lands, and poetry occupies a significant place in its culture and in the hearts of all who come here.

- The Good Life in Galicia: An Anthology
1
Galicia is a fascinating part of Green Spain, the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula, and sits in the north eastern most part, surrounded on two sides by the sea and on a third by Portugal. This short anthology contains writings about Galicia, including several pieces about the Ribeira Sacra, the Sacred Riverbank. Included are stories and articles about its people and its landscape, including the seasons in the vineyards. Wine is a liquid that flows throughout Spain, and in the deep valleys of the Ribeira Sacra region the grapes and their harvest hold an even more special place in the hearts of the people. Galicia is a also a land of close families and small villages that have existed almost unchanged for centuries. We hope you enjoy this brief look at an ancient land, one full of generous people and natural splendours, and agree that there is indeed a lot of good in a life in Galicia.

Galicia is a fascinating part of Green Spain, the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula. The region sits in the northwestern-most part of the country, surrounded on two sides by the sea, and on a third by Portugal. This short anthology contains writings about Galicia, including several pieces about the coastal parts of Galicia, unlike last year’s anthology, which had writings about the Ribeira Sacra—the sacred riverbank. Included are stories and articles about its people and its landscape, its myths and legends, its history and the mystery of the huerta, or vegetable garden. This year we introduced a Poetry section in the competition this book is based on, and poetry features strongly in this year’s anthology. Galicia is one of the Celtic lands and poetry occupies a significant place in its culture. We hope you enjoy this brief look at an ancient land, one full of generous people and natural splendours, and agree that there is indeed a lot of good in a life in Galicia.
