1. I only watch movies during the night time, I find it super strange watching a full movie while the sun is still out.
2. The very first instrument I ever played was a wood guiro.
3. When I was a kid I wanted to be a painter or a carpenter.
4. The perfect date: picnic at a quiet park, book, stroll around the lake and ice cream (dairy free) or hot cider if it’s cold.
5. I always travel with my in-ears, melatonin, a set of pens and a toothbrush.

6. The word in English that took me the most time to get right was “color” because I kept pronouncing it as “collar”. Even to this day I still get it wrong sometimes.
7. The song I enjoy playing the most right now is “Proud”. Although I get very emotional every time I sing it, it’s special because it reminds me of my whole family back in Spain.
8. The latest show I bench-watched was “Agatha All Along”. Kathryn Hahn and the rest of the crew were incredible and the writing and style was just delightful.
9. When I visit a new city I love to walk around aimlessly and hopefully run into some unexpected treasures!
10. One of the items that I missed the most from Spain when I first moved to America were “Kinder Eggs”! I can’t believe they don’t have those here!!
