What do most tourists miss out on when they visit your city?
Here in my city of Nashville, Tennessee, tourists come from all over the world to experience the country music downtown and to see the replica of the Parthenon from Greece. While Music City nightlife and historical monuments are always fun to visit, I think tourists are missing out on a fun bar called Santa's Pub. Adorned year-round with Christmas decorations, Santa's Pub is a karaoke bar owned by a sweet old man with a white beard and his wife who will always smile and applaud no matter how terribly you and your drunk friends are singing.
During the night, you'll see several crowds of people come and go. First, there's the old school crowd. These are the ones who will sing the ballads only your parents know the words to. While the Baby Boomer crowd gets closer to their bedtime, It's time for the college kids and tourists to get up there and sing classics from the 90s and mid 2000s. Things can get a little emotional as singers dedicate songs to people who are no longer in their lives. At other times, you can feel the whole room vibrate and tremble as people stomp, clap, and sing until they can't anymore.
If you ever come to visit Nashville, don't forget to visit Santa's pub where everyone will love to sing along to the song you've been listening to for the past couple of months.

If you could go back in time...
If you could go back in time to give advice to yourself during the beginning of your language-learning journey, what would you say to yourself?

When I look back, I can see so many missed opportunities.

What movie/series villain are you most similar to?
Personally, all my friends tell me that I remind them of Gus from <em>Breaking Bad </em>because of how my Spanish sounds. 😂

Are there any villains you look like, act like, or relate to?

Age limits in the professional world
Here in the United States, we currently have the oldest president we've ever had. Donald Trump became the oldest first-term president in American history at the age of 73 while his competitors are also in their 70s.

Are political leaders usually this old in your country?

Some people, including former president Jimmy Carter, have suggested that there be an age limit. After being asked if the 94-year-old would consider running for a second term, he said, "I hope there is an age limit. You know, if I were just 80 years old, if I were 15 years younger, I don't believe I could undertake the duties that I experienced when I was President."

Questions to consider
1. What's your opinion on the matter?
2. Should the presidency have a maximum age limit? If so, why?
3. Are there other jobs that should have such limits?
4. If we disqualify candidates for a job because of their age, is that automatically ageism?

Please leave your opinions in the comments below. I'd love to know your thoughts!
