Something about the lockdown in Spain
It's been 34 days since Spanish Government declared the lockdown due to COVID-19. I live in a shared flat with three flatmates and I think we are doing really good so far. We could stay home 30 days more if it's necessary (I think it will be). We try to stay active and positive, we do fitness in the living room all together, we are learning to cook things we have never tried before, we watch Netflix... To be honest, my life hasn't changed that much. I'm that kind of person that prefers staying at home reading, watching TV shows and movies, listening podcasts...
This crisis is being a good opportunity to test teleworking. A lot of people have been saying for ages that teleworking should be implemented in our country. They think that there are a lot people working in an office when they can do the same job at home. They even think that it could be more productive.
Now that there are a lot of people teleworking because of coronavirus, they've realized that teleworking is harder than working in the office. They feel like they're a slave in their own home. Because now that they don't have nothing else to do they are working more than ever.

Could someone correct my notebooks entries?
Hi everyone! I'm a quite active member of iTalki and I always try to help people by correcting notebooks, answering questions and sharing materials. The thing is that I don't know why but it seems like English speakers don't correct as many notebooks entries as Spanish people do on iTalki. There are a lot of notebooks entries in English without any corrections meanwhile people who write in Spanish always (or almost always) get a correction. Look for notebooks entries written in English and compare them with the ones written in Spanish.
I think that this is not fair at all. I think that if you are a native English speaker and you get corrections when you write in another language, there is no better way to be grateful than correcting notebooks from people that are learning English. That's how this site should work. Help and be helped.

Ricky Gervais is coming to Spain
Ricky Gervais will be in Madrid with his new show "SUPERNATURAL" on November 16th.
I got two tickets for Ricky Gervais' show "Supernatural" on November 16th. I'll go with my brother. We have booked a room with Airbnb and we'll get to Madrid on November 15th, one day before the show. We want to go to Comedy Clubs in Madrid on Friday night, visit the city and have some fun. After the show we want to visit some Comedy Clubs again before leaving the city. We'll drive all night to get back to Malaga. We'll have to drive 5 or 6 hours but I'm sure it will be worth it.
We are so excited! We are looking forward to seeing him performing, even though we know that it's going to be almost impossible to understand the whole show (because our English is not good enough and his accent his very difficult to understand for us). But we'll enjoy just seeing him in front of us. He's a legend.
In order to be able to understand the show as much as possible, we are listening to his podcast again and again and again. And the thing is... That I never get tired of it, it's HILARIOUS!
Thank you for your corrections!

My summer job
My summer job.
I needed money to pay my studies so I decided to work this summer. I found a job as a concierge in a hotel in Marbella. I've been working here for 3 days now. In this 3 days I've worked in the night shift, from 9 p.m to 7 a.m. There aren't many people in the hotel yet so it's been very quiet this days and I didn't have much to do. I take care of the keys and make sure that everything is ok and that everyone is respecting the rules. But the most difficult thing is to stay awake. Everything is so quiet and dark that is difficult not to fall asleep. A massive wave of people is supposed to come during the following days. The best part of this job is the opportunity to speak English with the costumers

Corrección de textos en inglés VS Corrección de textos en español
¿Por qué creéis que los nativos españoles/latinos de iTalki corregimos muchos más cuadernos de gente aprendiendo español que los nativos de habla inglesa textos de gente aprendiendo inglés?
Da igual quién escriba una entrada de un cuaderno en español, como mucho en una hora alguien lo habrá corregido, algunos incluso tienen 3 o 4 correcciones en 1 hora.Sin embargo, la gente que escribe cuadernos en inglés tiene que esperar mucho más tiempo para que un nativo se lo corrija. Hay entradas que pueden llevar días publicadas sin una sola corrección.
¿No pensáis que el mejor agradecimiento es que todos colaboremos en igual medida unos con otros?

A Netflix Comedy Special recommendation. Daniel Sloss: 'Jigsaw'
A Netflix Comedy Special recommendation. Daniel Sloss: 'Jigsaw'
Jigsaw is the second part of Daniel Sloss's Comedy Special named "Daniel Sloss: Live Shows".
I've watched it like five times and I never get tired of it, it's a masterpiece.
In this 59 minutes show, Daniel talks about relationships, love, veganism and how learning to be alone it's necessary to get to know yourself better.
His jigsaw analogy is wonderful, I strongly recommend you to watch the show.
More than 4500 couples broke up after watching this show because of his theory about love which I thing is a very good theory. In fact, some people are afraid of watching the show with their boyfriends or girlfriends.
I think that everyone should watch this show with their couples, it could be a good test. You shouldn't be afraid, if you truly belong each other, this show would never affect your relationship. But if it does... It means that your relationship should have ended a long time ago.
Seriously, watch it.

I'm looking for Marvel Comics fans to do a Spanish-English exchange. (SKYPE CALL)
Hi, I'm Sergio from Spain and I'm looking for English native speakers who want to improve their Spanish.
I just came up with this idea, let me know what you think:
What about learning/practicing a language by reading comics?
This is how it would work. Both partners would have two versions of the same comic book, one in English and one in Spanish (I could provide the comics on PC for free). If you're practicing Spanish you would read some pages of the Spanish version out loud. I would correct your pronunciation and solve any doubts you could have. At some point during the reading I would stop you to ask you some questions about the plot like "tell me, briefly, how did the character get here?" "What has happened so far?" "Could you describe the image of this page?" And you would have to answer in Spanish. Then you would have to do the same when I read in English. In the end we can share our opinions about the comic. We could do 30 minutes in Spanish and 30 minutes in English.
NOTE: It doesn't have to be a Marvel Comics, it could be any comic you like (if there is a Spanish version, of course)
