Hola! I think its fair to say that we’re used to international and European leaders talking about a war in different contexts; the war on terror, the war on drugs and 2020 brought the war on coronavirus.

Money talks and so should we
Hola, Money makes the world go round. Or so they tell me. And after 28 years of using money, it doesn’t grow on trees. The importance of money was instilled in me from an early age. Always save for a rainy day. Maybe that rainy day could be a global pandemic or just a quietContinue reading “Money talks and so should we”
Black Lives Matter, in every language
Hola, As you may have noticed, I’ve been a bit quiet recently, which is most unlike me.

Hola! Spain is now the worst-hit country in Europe after Italy and boy, does the media keep reminding us of that. Has anyone considered a news ban for your own sanity?
