Pondering Democracy
We learn in school that pure democracy is founded in the theory of the basic human right to be heard. Democracies are based upon the concept of human equality. It is the cornerstone of the governance of such nations as the United Kingdom, India, and the United States. Democracy is the prime element of all legitimate governments on Earth.
These are lofty words that have been repeated by concerned, responsible citizens and political figures throughout the modern era. Today’s major democracies actually take the form of some iteration of a democratic republic. They may exist as a parliamentary system such as in the UK or a federal system as in the US.

This whole show is starting to go astray!
Ok, unlike fiction, which allows a reader to suspend disbelief if sufficiently well written (which this scene was not, for me, anyway), non-fiction must be credible, backed by either good reasoning, or good evidence. That is where life long education comes in. Ok, back to this bad episode of language-learning (in Castillian):

I do love the plans within a plan, but this Harry Potter moment is a bit much: hilarious, but not as if they’d believe it, on no other evidence.
Now, this manipulation, yes, quite believable, unfortunately.
Ayy…
And hang on, here. If the Professor’s father was supposed to have fought with the Partisans in Italy, hence teaching him the song Bella Ciao, then why would he have ended up having kids in Franco’s Spain?

Travelling never disappoints!!!

Would you agree with me? To me, traveling is always something surprising: fabulous scenery, an unexpected spot, a marvelous and wild landscape, and of course the country’s culture to discover through many things surrounding you.
And it’s always a pleasure to share with you these photos. So, just enjoy!
