I am very impulsive and quick-tempered and multiple times I ride the flow of emotions too high, therefore I have said things that later, upon a second, third and hundredth thought, were not the most assertive or kind option, I´ll admit that. Hence I am very sure that I should not write these lines in…
My Sunday in Barcelona posts are taking a break, such is my social life :), but since I noticed that there are some people actually reading what I write around here and very few of them are from Barcelona as per the stats, I thought about sharing my suggestions for a newcomer in the city.…
It looks like I´ll make this a habit for a while, so there you have it, some recommendations gathered this week: As I said a hundred times already, I absolutely love the Invisibilia podcast. They are preparing the new season now, but have graced us with a bonus episode. It is powerful and…
So I am writing these lines in the midst of Diada manifestations (I provided just the Wikipedia link, keeping it simple for those who have no idea what this is about). There are chants, my walls are literally vibrating and I can simply feel the strong energy of all these people (and there are…
And I am not talking (only) about books, this time. As I explained last week I try to catch up with what I save during the week as "to read" and I thought I´d share. This week was especially overwhelming for me for many reasons, so I think it is a good exercise to change the…

I cannot deny, guilty as charged, I am addicted to social media and especially to Facebook. I try to control myself in order to function properly at work (at least), but I do tend to scroll around until I forget what I was searching for to begin with. I think I always did that even…
When I travel, I feel that not even the most beautiful library in the world (I love libraries, I find them truly magical) with thousands of wise books can begin to teach us as much as exiting our well-known little circle. Unfortunately, I do not travel as much as I used to and…
I do not have a clear idea on what to write here (yet?), nor do I have a very big audience (yet? 🙂 ), but my plan was to write a mix of everything connected to my life, my ideas and my thoughts. This cannot exclude the place I live in and that is Barcelona,…
There are many alternative words for "being brave": spirited, bold, courageous, daring, gritty. There is also a synonym that we sometimes use: reckless. Upon my recent session with my therapist, among other intelligent and ohwhydidInotthinkaboutthisearlier words of wisdom she uses (and I am not saying that just because she might read here 🙂 ), she…
