The walls of an old house are the mirror of those who have lived in it, they have seen the passage of time, the intertwining of generations who, in that dwelling, have spent moments of their lives. Some houses sometimes become ruins, are abandoned and die out. In other cases, there are people who leave their hearts in those houses, who see them as part of their lives and cannot imagine that they might be lost.
