SpainTalk - Campanadas de Boda - 1st play in Spain

Considering that I've lived in Spain for a little over a year, its someone surprising that I've seen my first play this past weekend. 

 

I enjoy going to plays and to concerts, I remember my first play overseas Kiss in Porto, Portugal, I really didn't understand most of the dialogue, but you sort of get the idea of the bigger picture, and the same pretty much with this play "Campanadas de Boda".  I had a hard time understanding all of the jokes and nuances, but for the most part, I understand the play. 

 

This play is about a wedding between an Indian gentleman and a Spanish woman, which highlights many of the stereotypes of marriage and even perhaps Spanish culture.

 

One of the things I really enjoyed the most about the play is the interactive nature.  For example, they take pictures during the play and you can download them after the show - for free!

TravelTalk - Madrid (8 Years Later)

My first trip to Spain was in 2005, now almost 8 years later, I wanted to recreate some photos that I have taken on that trip.  How fortunate of me to still keep in touch with my friend Raul.

Who would have thought that I would be living in Spain 8 years later? Who would have thought that I would be living in Galicia? I certainly didn't and now I can't really imagine living anywhere else at the moment.

Today, I am so fortunate to be back in Spain another year, which starts off with hanging out with one of the first people I've met in Spain.

2005 - November

No trip for me to Madrid is complete without a visit to the chocolateria San Gines for churros con chocolate - and let me tell you after 8 years later, it is still the best that I have had in the entire world.

Mahalo nui loa for your hospitality in Madrid, Raul and Joanne - I can't want to return the favor in A Coruña.  wow.  Time does fly by.
