- spanish weddings 2017 has been a year full of weddings. In my case, I had two but a friend of mine had 7 or 8, he`s so popular and well off as well, because you should be rich if you want to assist to 7 weddings. So 2017 is the year if you want to tie the knot. Ass I see it, there are different types of weddings: First of all, there are those couple who get married because she has a bun in the oven. Secondly, there are those who have been going out together since they were teenagers. On the other hand, there are these couple who get married just to have a crazy hen/stag party. In Spain we try to get out of not going to the weddings as it costs a lot: hen party 100€, a new shirt or tie 60€, a present or money 100-150€. Because, I don’t know in other countries but here in Spain, we pay for our meal, I mean, the couple invites you to attend, but you should give them a present or cash, at least 100€. Mostly, they write their bank account in your invitation, that’s ridiculous and awkward. I feel upset during the last wedding I went because I gave them cash and I’ve not received thanks yet. I’m fed up with that. So, the way I see it is that, if you want to invite me to your wedding I wouldn’t have to pay for the meal, would I? And you know, what do they do with the money they get? Yes, they pay for their 2 weeks trip, give or take 3 grand. I look up to a couple who donated every single coin they got. This weekend an acquaintance got married and it was a disaster, as was pouring and the banquet was to be outside in the countryside. The rain was likely, but they ignored the advertence and everyone there became dripping. Despite the fact, they finished the day with 3-4 grand more, crazy!October 10, 201700
Camino de Santiago
Desde hace mucho tiempo quiero que aprender español. Eso Esto es porque en mí infancia estaba a menudo de vacaciones a menudo estaba de vacaciones en Andalucía durante mi infancia y lo me encantadó encantó. Especialmente Granada me gustó mucho. Cuando fui hace doce años, caminé el camino de santiago de Roncesvalles a Burgos con mi padre y mi hermano mayor.
Hace cinco años finalmente dicidí a viajar a españa para hacer el camino de santiago completo y por sí solo. Fue una experiencia muy emocionante, porque haste hasta este momento siempre viajaba con amigos o mi familia. Empecé en St.-Jean-Pied de Port y lluegé a Cabo de Finesterre nueves nueve semanas más tarde.
Desafortunadamente no aprendí a hablar español en este viaje, por que todo el tiempo hablé ingles o alemán con los otros peregrinos.0 votedOctober 10, 20170- setting up a business I’ve been working in my present job for 7years and it was about time I decided to change it. During a few months I’ve been thinking about setting up an online business, that’s because I’ve become a highly rated worker and it could be a good time to start my own business. Logically, I’m not going to quit my present job, not until I can get by form my online incomes. Also, I’ll have to give two months’ notice/to hand in my notice. But, Rome doesn’t build in a one day, so it’ll be a large process and in business, the rush is not a good mate. The most important reason to choose an online business is because of money and time. With an online business, you’ll save on expenses such as red tape, renting an office… In addition to this, I was wondering to merge with some partner or taking a franchise, but I’d prefer working by myself, it’s my project and I want things done by my way. Browsing websites I realized that there are a lot of sites offering what I will, so I’ll think over during some months as I must acknowledge the competence settled on the market is more powerful than I could.October 6, 201700

0 votedOctober 2, 20172- at work Getting my present job when I had just finished my degree was quite unexpected as in 2010 the crisis in Spain was so high. Having an opportunity like that was really difficult. When I started in the company I had to learn the ropes, because I had never worked in such a similar vacancy before. Despite that, I learnt quickly and I became a rated worker. The salary may haven`t been so lucrative, but the distance from home was a just five-minute walk. Most of the days I did routine tasks, a lot of dull paperwork, someone was like watching grass grow. At times, I had a very heavy workload so sometimes it made me feeling fed up with. But, what I really hated was when my boss got on my nerves being too thorough. I used to cut corners because sometimes I had to meet a deadline, but he didn’t like that but doing it by the book or by his way. So, after a few years, I didn’t find my routine fulfilling as I was stuck in a rut without any goals or future interest. Finally, I gave it up because I didn’t want to keep on doing things that I really didn’t like such as stucking behind a desk. Although, it wasn’t an easy decision, I well awared of I had a not bad job, which I was familiar with. At this time, the way I see it is that I’d feel like to change my professional career and trying new things in order to find a job which gives me motivation and satisfaction.October 2, 201720
Un día difícil
Bueno, hoy hace mucho frío en la ciudad de Cincinnati en E.E.U.U. - mi ciudad natal, y la ciudad en la que vivo actualmente- tanto frío que muchos de nosotros - incluyéndome - no teniamos que cumplir nuestros obligaciones de trabajo. Por la mañana hacía tanto frío que las autoridades emitieron una "advertencia de sensación térmica." ¿Ćhévere, no? Pero también una pena pequeñita, porque más tarde tengo que ir en bicicleta a la casa de mi amigo para comenzar el proceso de hacer vino...pero aún faltan algunas horas hasta que me tenga que ir, así que no tiene sentido pensar en eso ahora. Mejor vivir el momento, ¿no?
Por ahora no tengo nada que hacer excepto practicar castellano, tocar música...y relajarme. Que un día difícil, ¿si o no?0 votedJanuary 18, 20160Pongo en práctica mi español 8: Un anuncio para una niñera
