January is a difficult month.
January is a difficult month. Everyone is fresh, back from the holidays, broke from paying for trips around the holidays and no private lessons in December. The homesickness has kicked in. We miss home.
This is the time to pull your friends close. We have been here for six months, and the newness has worn off. This is the time to reach out and find those challenges, because they are not jumping out at you like they were four months ago.
We are half way through our time in Spain. We have as much time left as we have been here.
That is both daunting and frightening.
But you can do it! Just grab your friends and go grab some pinchos.
