Gran Canaria is a crossroad. It is the crossing point for people of thousand different backgrounds. It is a strange mix of flavours, colours and cultures that has suddenly appeared bringing these ancient travellers. It has become to being known as the last European harbour and people say it is the last gulp of air before embarking on a long ocean adventure.

No one ever imagined it would become such a cosmopolitan place being this far from the centres of the world. For over five centuries travellers have repeated the same tune: "This should not be here." But it is. The cracks in the frontier have their own rules.
