 "Arriondas" in Spanish; "Les Arriondes" in Asturian, a disappearing language, but there are recent efforts to keep Asturian alive. Arriondas is not a touristy town by any stretch of the imagination....

 Oihana invited me to drive for the second half of the morning. We headed southwards through Llovio on the right bank of the Sella, and along the N 634 into the deep, sinuous defile between the...
