My blogs have become a little bit infrequent lately. For the moment, let me just blame the fact that European cultures are what I am used to and I find it hard to find anything interesting enough to write about. That said, by now, most of you probably already know that I have moved again and I am currently living in Spain, or rather, the Basque Country, in the beautiful town of San Sebastián (Donostia in Euskara).
