Deal with a bad day
We all have bad days, but some people struggle to go through them more than others. I always try to be as open here as I can when it comes to mental health (don’t forget to read my Be kind to yourself post talking about the subject) because I think that is such an important…

THE HUGE GAP IN THE CONTENT CREATOR COMMUNITY
Something I’ve been reading about these last days and I’ve been trying to know as much as possible has been the difference of professional opportunities given to content creators depending on their skin colour. It’s not shocking that brands give better offers to content creators on how they look like, and it’s been a topic…

2020 IS NOT CANCELLED
A lot has been going on on the news and social media since the very start of the year. 2020 seems like a total nightmare for both humanity and nature. Half of Australia on fire and thousands of animals who lost their habitat, a global pandemic that made us stay at home while losing loved…

BLACK LIVES MATTER
I’ve taken my time to stop, listen and educate myself before saying anything because I wanted to make sure I knew what I was talking about and that I was saying the right thing. The past Tuesday I decided to stop posting the usual content and, instead, post a black square on my Instagram feed…

SOCIAL MEDIA IS NOT REALITY
I feel like the title is a statement that shouldn’t be said since everybody should already know it but, unfortunately, it’s not that way. We’re all conscious about the fact that social media does not show all the aspects and sides of someone’s life, but that does not change the way we feel about ourselves…

LIFE UPDATE: WEEK ELEVEN
I can finally say that Barcelona has moved to “phase 1”, which means that we’re allowed to go out for a drink at a terrace or go to other people’s houses, and it feels like such an improvement after so long. Of course, terraces are so busy and it’s barely impossible to find a place…

BE KIND TO YOURSELF
I know that I’m late, but because a few days ago was the Mental Health Awareness Week, I wanted to dedicate a post on the blog since it’s something I consider really important and that shouldn’t be a tabu (because it sometimes feels like it). This year’s topic was kindness, and so that’s why I…

LIFE UPDATE: WEEK TEN
Finally exams week is here, which means that it’s closer to an end. I know that several of you are also at uni so I want to wish you all the best of luck on your exams and also remind you that the end of the course is really close. Now, into the “blog-related” stuff,…

TIME TO LEARN NEW THINGS
Yesterday I had so much fun asking you on my Instagram Stories what have you learned during quarantine so far. Obviously, this new situation has taught us all things we wanted to learn for so long, or that we didn’t even think about until now. But, either way, we have to be happy we learned…

LIFE UPDATE: WEEK NINE
This feels like the never-ending story. Wow, nine weeks already. Who would have thought this would happen? It still feels like a crazy situation to me when I stop and think about it, but I feel like the best right now is to keep going with our lives, taking care of us and everyone around,…

BLOGGING DURING TIMES OF QUARANTINE
Quarantine has definitely changed tha game for all of us. I was already used to working from home since the majority of work I do is on the laptop, but when it comes to content creation and sources of inspiration I spend so much time outside wandering around. The fact of not being able to…

LIFE UPDATE: WEEK EIGHT
I feel like I start every life update post the same way but, I can’t believe this has been week nº8 since we went on lockdown. One side of me feels like it’s been ages since I was freely running around the city, but the other side of me feels like it hasn’t been that…
