Pretty amazing, huh? But there's always room for some critical reflection here: Do you think the man may be somehow involved in the way animals interact here? Maybe you wanna think about the dimensions of park safaris like this one...

A Really Close Shave...
And this is one of the most visited videos in the recent years, a breathtaking recording of animal interaction in a nature preserve called Kruger, in South Africa.

What's the Key to Being a Great Dad?
After watching the episode of Modern Family which deals with parenting issues, now it's time to review the words and expressions we worked on together in class. Below you can find the vocabulary sheet and the episode with the subtitles. You should watch it again, a second viewing is surely gonna be of great help to understand all the expressions we learned, and to catch all the jokes!

Talking about Melting Pots... Market Days
Talking about melting pots the other day, we finished the class watching the following short film which actually illustrates this very fact in a market place in the US. Click on the video below if you feel like tasting the human feelings treasured in it one more time... I'd like to thank my former student Carlos Crespo for showing this endearing story to me, and to you.
Market Days, Synopsis
Randall spends his days imagining the vibrant inner lives of various vendors at the multicultural urban market where he works: none more so than Angela, an angel with her own pastry shop. But Randall's inattention to his work lead to a string of thefts and soon threatens to cost him his job. A chance encounter with a beautiful starlet and her lapdog provides Randall not only an opportunity to break the ice with Angela, but a chance to prove his worth to everyone at the market - including himself.

One Headlight by the Wallflowers
Remember singing along to an English hit song was another good strategy to work on our fluency in English? Well, your classmate Paco sent me this song to kick off the karaoke season. Not only did he send the link to the video, he also prepared and intro to the song, and edited the lyrics. You will find everything below. Thanks Paco for all this! Great song!

Spreading the good vibes
Hi guys,
This is the last post before the exam, so I figured you could use some time off and watch these people turning a dull routine visit to the gas station to fill up the tank into the funkiest, funniest moment ever! Worth the watch, really! Check out their singing.. there's some real talent hiding out there... Don't miss the couple's good vibes!
