A date with Amancio Ortega I chose Amancio Ortega, so I’m going to talk about him. His full name is Amancio Ortega Gaona. He was born the twentieth of March in 1936 in Leon, Spain. Amancio is a Spanish fashion businessman, is the founder and current largest shareholder of Inditex. Inditex is one of the biggest multinationals in the world, which owns brands like Massimo Dutti, Bershka, Oysho, Pull and Bear, Stradivarius, Zara, and Uterqüe Currently he resides with his second wife in an apartment building in Galicia He’s the Spain’s richest man and one of the richest in the whole world. Why have I chosen him? Well, I admire the way he has become billionaire. He left school at the age of 14 and he started working with his father. He was poor! He decided to open a small shop and then he was increasing until what is now Inditex, so he is a great entrepreneur and I would like being like him. Our date. I would like to meet him in his large yacht, whose home port is Sanxenxo. I think it would be the perfect place, from where we will be able to see the fantastic views of the coast It would be in summer, because we need very good weather in order to do an outing along the estuary of Pontevedra. And that is all!

A terrible first date A terrible first date A few weeks ago, I met a girl called Susana. We decided to prepare our first date last Saturday in Pontevedra. Everything seemed go well. First of all, we chose a romantic restaurant called ‘Cambalache’. When we arrived, the restaurant was full of people and we couldn’t sit down. We had forgotten book a table! Then, we went home because we couldn’t found any available restaurant. Finally, Susana had to leave while we were having dinner a pizza because his father was hospitalised. The following day I tried to call Susana but her mobile was off! Few days later I received a message where she said ‘we have to break up’. I was astonished. Definitely, it was a terrible first date.
