Abstract

This article narrates in the first person the experience of emigration from Murcia to Asturias in the fifties and sixties. The experiences of the emigrants are reported: the train ride, the rental house with cooking facilities, the coexistence between locals and newcomers, the purchase of their first own home, the school, the streets, the secondary school, etc. The neighbourhood of La Luz in Avilés, built as housing for industrial workers, is the other protagonist of this work.
