When I got sick a couple of months ago I knew I had to change my diet. Not that I was doing anything wrong. I wasn’t drinking or smoking, I was eating a lot of veggies, walking more than 10k every day (I couldn’t run because of a knee injury). What I mean is, I was what people would consider a healthy person. But the truth is, I really wasn’t. As always, my researcher soul made me look for answers….

I always enjoy celebrating anything, even when I learnt about it two days ago (not in this case, but happens to me all the time).

Hey there! Maybe it’s because I’m in Barcelona right now and the weather is warmer than in the North, but I’m in the perfect mood for an Avocado Salad. You’ll make this recipe in 5 minutes, I swear. Ingredients: 1 avocado (per person) 1/3 red bell pepper 1/2 chile chipotle from a can (I buy mine in the supermarket) 1 shallot or 1/2 red onion 1 tsp olive oil A tiny bit of salt 1/2 lime (juiced) Some chives Cashew…
On Friday we had a great gig at La Fábrica de Chocolate in Vigo. Well, I say great, but appart from that it was kind of mental. Two people fainted at the beginning, and it was kind of difficult to stay concentrated. After the gig I could talk to Ana, one of them, and she was feeling better. I hope Dani, the other guy, feels OK now because I couldn’t talk to him after the show. Some made jokes comparing…
