Description
English: In Santa Brígida, Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain). To the left was the actual house, a two story not much bigger than this one. This was probably a kind of storage room. The building to the right was the kitchen. In the Canary Islands outside kitchens were very common, due to the weather (not so cold and your house keeps cooler in the summer if no fire is made inside it) and because of the fear of fires, as the wood of choice for buildings was resinous heart of pine - the resin that protected it from insect and fungal attack also makes it burn easily.
Español: Casa canaria en Santa Brígida, Gran Canaria (Islas Canarias, España). A la izquierda está la casa que se habita en la actualidad, que no es mucho más grande que ésta. Ésta es probablemente utilizada como lugar de almacenaje. El edificio a la derecha era la cocina. En Canarias las cocinas exteriores son muy comunes en el campo, debido al buen clima y por temos a que el fuego de cocinar pudiera provocar un incendio en la casa, pues la madera de tea de pino era el material con el que se construía la estructura de estas casas y su resina, la misma que protege la madera contra insectos del ataques fungicidas, también arde con facilidad.
