Private Schools Or Hospitals Should Be Abolished?
When the topic revolves around public or private services, there are two fields where it might become a heated debate: hospitals and schools. On the one hand, there are those who think that private schools or hospitals should’ve been abolished long time ago. They maintain that a quality public service guarantees equality of opportunities and uprise the essentials. On the other hand, those who are delighted with private services, defend that they’ve better facilities, faster services and, no need to mention, a point of distinction. In my closest net of family and friends, here in Torrejón, I'd say that they are split 50/50.
Among all the strong arguments against private services, the economic section can be the most mentioned. I remember my sister saying last week: “if I can't afford a private hospital for two kids, let alone with the school”.
All this being true, it doesn’t mean that private services need abolishing. Just because I can´t bear the cost of a Ferrari it doesn’t signify that we should put and end to the Brand. On top of that, I firmly believe that private hospitals are saving lives providing faster tests results than the publics.
To conclude, understanding the arguments supporting the public services, whether we like it or not, we live in a capitalist world where, if you got the resources, you can freely choose among different offers to decide.
Any correction would be more than welcome. Thanks!!

Trip Anecdotes III
After we spent five days in San Francisco, we went to Mariposa, a small village near Yosemite Park. Our hosts in Mariposa were simply wonderful. A 60 years old couple who were very kind to us and they spent a lot of time giving us many tips about the best trail to do in the park in one day. While we were talking, a Belgium couple went into the living room. They were other guests and they came from a ghost town in the north of California. They need eight hours driving to get the place, so the first thing the woman said was: "I've already crossed Belgium from north to south two times". It's funny how you face the distance depending on where you come from.

Grandparents or how to be parents again.
My parents generation deserves a Medal of Honor or something like that. They were born twenty years after the end of a civil war and they grew up dealing with the issues generated by it. Because of the family situation they started to work being children. They got married because get married was the opportunity to keep the money they earn (until they got married they gave all their salary to their parents). They wanted a different life for their children and gave to us everything they never had. They are retired now and they could do everything they want (traveling around the world o simply don't doing anything) , instead of this they have to keep with their grandchildren while their children go to work. They are parents again, but they are sixty-seven years old.

More Trip Anecdotes.
My wife and I decided to move to Yosemite Park after 5 days in San Francisco. Our road trip started after five days hiking in SFO (you can believe or not, but we didn't take any bus, subway or cab for four days, except the famous cable car). We went to rent a car and, before to start our road trip, I checked the oil and breaks level. The breaks level was at minimum. While I was checking the levels a Chinese guy stopped his car next to me and asked: "is there any problem, budy?" I told to him what was wrong. He was a employee of the rent a car company so I thought I was in good hands. He got out the car and asked me the keys while another Chinese guy came from nothing next to me asking the same question: "is there any problem, buddy?" So I told to him what was wrong and they started to talk in Chinese. The guy inside the car started up the engine and got out the car saying: "where is the problem, buddy? The engine works!" I looked to the guy next to me looking for help and he said: "as you can see, the engine works!" Oh my gosh! I was lucky and the company changed the car, but ain't was due to my lovely mechanics.

Trip anecdotes.
One of the things I love of travel around the world is remember these little anecdotes happens during the trip. My wife and I went to California last summer. In order to improve our English, we thought to rent an AirBnB room and take advantage of live with a native speaker for 5 days in San Francisco. After twenty four hours of flight, bus and subway we got to the place, a wonderful house near The Castro. We were very tired and we can't wait to have a rest in horizontal position. But we had to meet our host before that. Our lovely native speaker. I rang the bell and she opened the door. I'm spanish. When you meet people in Spain is normal to say hello and cheek kissing (two kisses). When I started the movement of the first kiss she did two steps back much better than Luca Doncic, she put her hand between our faces and she said: "no, no, no". You can imagine my face (red like a tomato). My wife was laughing about my face during one month. But it wasn´t the worst. She was German! Come on! 3.000.000.000 miles to have a chat with native speakers and our host is German. I thought: "where is the hidden camera?".

Comfort zone.
My comfort zone is bigger than I ever could imagine. I was born and raised in Madrid, and I never thought I would move to another city or country far of my family and friends. I had to move to Mallorca because of work and I live in Mallorca for 6 years now. I feel in Mallorca almost like home now. I've met several persons who are my friends now, I know the city and the island almost like the palm of my hand. When I travel around the world, sometimes I back to Madrid, sometimes I back to Mallorca. I don't care, I feel I get home.

I'm back to work!!
I don't know why, but not always you are at the same point in your life. I know that I need to practice my English and spend more time doing it, but I always find the way to skip this part. I'm easygoing and I always find someone to go out "de cañas" (or someone finds me). But it's over, I'm going to work really hard to achieve my main goal: speak English like a native speaker (intermediate level would be nice, to be honest). I'm looking for language partners and cañas partners also.
