    1. They had an event a few months ago where a couple of storytellers came in and talked. It was hosted by a library but we couldn't make it.

    2. Ah! Imagine us sitting there, listening, enjoying, and afterwards having a pint of plain.

  4. M'ha caigut a les mans un llibre: "Noies de Riyad" de Rajaa Alsanea. Conèixer altres cultures, altres pensaments, ens ajuden a ser més empàtics i menys egoistes.

    1. Quite, Paula. Whereas I do not become more empathetic when people are oppressed with whatever justifications. Oppression is not a cultural achievement. / ¡Correcto! Mientras que no me vuelvo más empático cuando la gente es oprimida por cualquier motivo. La opresión no es un logro cultural.
