We can do it classmates, in other ways we are going to collapse and we don’t want that. But there is something so beautiful happening right now, that I love it, I have always done it, and that’s the winter, ¡yay! I’m a hundred percent winter person, I love cold air, I love snow, I love snowballs fights and there’s something that I absolutely love more of this season, and that is the food. I grow up in a little town close to The Andes, and obviously is incredible cold so, warm food and warm drinks are essential to survive. I always remember my last year of high school because with my classmates we decided to save money to buy an electric kettle, brilliant idea. And I think there’s anot...
