Great concert of We are Standard in Pamplona

Last Friday I went to a concert in a renamed concert hall in Pamplona. The band playing was We are Standard, a new Spanish one which is getting a lot of success lately. I don't know much about music, but I can tell you this is a band worth seeing in live. The music they play is really motivating and you can't just stay still while they are sounding. Plus, they are pretty enthusiastic on the stage and make the crowd enjoy the concert.






Besides the concert, it was a great night. Our friend Victor came to Pamplona for the occasion and because it had been quite a while since we had hanged out together for the last time, it was special. I leave you with one of their songs and it's for you to decide whether you like them or not. Enjoy!!!!

Carlota's birthday: a yearly tradition

It's starting to become a tradition, visiting Carlota in Segovia during her birthday. Every year she invites us to go spend the weekend at her place in that tiny but beautiful city. And every time we go we have a wonderful time. We try to balance both the party time, which is quite extensive, and the cultural one as well. This time we visited the famous palace of 'La Granja', in the outskirts of the city. It was built in its times as a copy of the one in Versalles and even though it's not quite the same, I have to admit they made a great job. The gardens are awesome and specially its fountains. If you get the chance to go there, try to arrange it so that they are working, since they don't operate every day of the year, just in certain dates.




And well, spending the weekend with some of my closest friends is always amazing. We don't see each other that often because of different reasons so I always value some quality time with them. Hope this tradition doesn't die. As well as our UVM internationals' reunions. Those surely cannot end, so let's keep them alive guys!!!

How hard is it to get food to the poor?

Honestly, I didn't know the answer to this question. But the other day surfing in the internet I found a pretty interesting and well done game which enables us to perform this task. It simulates the process of delivering food to the poor and the different stages we have to go through in order to accomplish it. I think it is quite entertaining and educational. Try it out!!
