The decision I would have never wanted to make
I know, it’s been a while since my last publication. I don’t like excuses, but there is an explanation. The facts I hadn’t been feeling good ultimately so the doctor recommended that I stop. WHAT? Stopping? Are you kidding me? No way! I’m passionate...
What a tricky language!
It’s very human to adapt things to our culture, to our way of seeing the world. No matter our place of birth. We all do it. Admit it, you have adapted foreing songs to your own language … so have I. Like the majority of Spaniards, as a child I tended to add...

About this edutopian blogger
