Experiencing Interruptions?

Notes on solitude

This is an attempt at understanding a bit more about the dynamics of coexistence, focusing the lens on the topic of being alone - whether we'd like it or not. Some notes on the difference between solitude and loneliness, and their relation to insularity, told by a priest, some nature watchers, a mayor and some other fascinating characters located in the insular territory of Madeira, in Portugal.
