(This blog is the English translation of this week’s primary blog, which was originally written in Spanish.) Happy Valentine's Day, I guess. I can hardly believe it, but a month and a half of the year has already passed. After 2020, the flow of time feels strange, sometimes too fast and sometimes too slow. So … Continue reading Did You Have a Good Valentine’s Day?

(This blog is the English translation of this week’s primary blog, which was originally written in Spanish.) So now it's the new year… can we start over? Just kidding, but ugh, what a horrible start to the year. I hope there’ll be fewer problems for the rest of 2021, and I won’t give up on … Continue reading A Fresh (and Rotten) Start

(This blog is the English translation of this week’s primary blog, which was originally written in Spanish.) I can hardly believe that this year is going to end in a few weeks.
