Hello, I am 54. I Live in Sevilla (Andalucia, Spain). I would like to improve my English spoken and written. I love travelling abroad, history, films, music and share points of view on what is happening in the world. If you are interested to learn about Spanish culture or language, please feel free to contact me. Any way, I don't try to be a teacher. I just want to hold a friendly conversation that would help both of us to enjoy learning lenguages.

    Ending a Year, Starting another One It is was time to look back and assess if we have achieved our resolutions said at the end of last year or not. Unlike most people, I can say "absolutely, yes". There is a simple reason for it. Because I did not claim any resolution at all. In my opinion, it is wide proved that less that 1% people get success in this question. So, why do we get frustated just for promise ourselves something out of reach?. Probably, trying to be less ambicious and taking our resolutions in another season less moving than Cristmas , it would be better to improve ourselves.

    Explict Lyrics When I am searching songs to listen on Spotify, sometime I find ones that have a kind of parental warning that says "includes explict lyrics". Most time it due to sexual expressions. It is werd for me, due to reasons. First, because explict used in this context sounds negative (crude words or expresions) but for us explict most time means something positive, like words clear as well accurate. On the other hand, catholic (mediterranean ones unlike Irish ones) are more tolerant about sexual exprresion in public contexts. In this sense, once I read that a private, in the Vietnam war, was fined due to write sexual expresion into a wc..but not by kill people. Any way, last time I found this warning was listening "Creep" by Radiohead, which is an absolutely masterpiace of pop music.

    I know what you mean, JR This week I listened to James Rodhes at El Teatro de la Cartuja. It was an amazing experience. For those that do not who James Rodhes is, let me to introduce him. He is a piano player. Probably he is not the best virtuous one but, without any dubt, he is a master regarding to get people enjoyed music like puclic did at Mozart time. He encourage us to take part in the party, clapping free even before the concert finishes. He get like a rock star of music classic. He shares with audience why he loves so much the pieces he plays. In a nutshell, he give us the joy to listen a classical music concert. By the way, if you do not he was a child ripped at his school days by this teacher. Read his book "instrumental" to find out how Bach's music saved his life.

    The Dial Everynight I listen BBC radio on the internet before to sleep. I like very much its app interface because it looks like an old fashioned telephone handset, that one which had a wheel dial to introduce numbers. I usually choose either ext news or promps program. Among the different options I never select Scotch or Welsh radio stations, despite I would like to do it, due to I can not get ...the acent! (what a pitty, I am afraid I still need more practice). Any way, what I want to highlight is that dial works like true life for me. Side by side you can find sad and raw stories, for example about poverty or social injustice, but only using the dial (turning from ext news to promps station) you can be moved to a world of hope and beautiful. In a net shell, as real as life itself.

    Living Alone during One Hundred Days There is a picture named " One Hundred Days of Loneliness" on the experience lived by a man who aimed to be staying alone in a forest for three months. He filmed it using a drone as well as several cameras, including small ones handed with sticks for selfies. As he said in a certain moment in the movie, he was inspired by "Walden" the famous Thoureau's book, which is a kind of Bible for people who think that human being need to rebuild his relationship with Nature. I encourage you to see it, not only for the magnificient footages of Natural Park of Redes, located at Asturias (North Spain) but also for its message.
