Bilbao

Ya estoy de vuelta del que va a ser el último viaje del verano. Staycation mode on y con mucho gusto, pues estoy ya hartita de aeropuertos y aviones (con todo lo afortunada que sé que soy, tener a la familia dispersa tiene sus inconvenientes).

Pues bien, el último destino ha sido Bilbao. La excusa, el festival de música Bilbao BBK y la intención, conocer un poco más el norte de España.

Back from my last trip of the summer, staycation mode on and really happy about it. This time was Bilbao, on the north of Spain, in the Basque Country or Euskadi, I should say. Romans never got there, so their language, culture and organisations have remained unique, even for the rest of Spaniards. It is also where the Bilbao BBK music festival takes place and the food is mind-blowing.

Last 12 movies I’ve watched

The hundred foot journey (2014) by Lasse Hallström

From the director of Cholocat (2000), a story centered around an Indian family who settle in a tiny village in the south of France and open a restaurant across the street from a Michelin-starred French restaurant.

Besides the gastronomic content of the movie, topic I love, there’s an etnic and cultural battle that Madame Mallory (Helen Mirren) and the Kadam family will win with spice.
