In my opinion birds of a Elkay EZ H2O Shirt flock together, and being surrounded by other non iberians made us flock together even more. You could be Spanish or Portuguese but apart from the language (which wasn’t a problem), I’m not sure how to explain this, but it felt to me as a Spanish kid, that Portugal was just another “kin’ region. Maybe it was because the Galicians bridged the gap somehow, I don’t know, or that we were surrounded by “weird notherners”. I grew up with a couple of Portuguese neighbours, and my dad swears I could speak portuguese as a small kid. Flash forward to the mid/end 90’s. My dad was working in London at the time and my mother and I went over for Christmas. He was staying at a house around Vauxhall I think. One of those shared houses with shared bathrooms. The housekeepers were a young Portuguese couple with two small kids, the wife’s brother was around, and there was another young Asturian girl as a tenant too… well… the feeling was the same as when I was a kid… we all spoke Portuñol and it had the same vibe as when I was a kid.. and I can assure it had nothing to do with Christmas.
