  • I am living in a dry region (now it’s like 60% bc it’s winter, but in summer reaches almost 0%humidity). I was like you and also got humidifiers before, but my recommendation is that you forget about it and just let nature do it’s thing and plants adapt to your environment.

    Obviously we cannot have ferns, but some plants like hoyas and such, you may be surprised that they adapt at the end and even thrive. At the end you do as you think best, but overcaring for plants that may be sick or cannot live in your climate is too big of a challenge long-term, take that into account











  • “coger” means fuck in latin america, but not in Spain where we use it as “grab/pick” normally. It causes fun reactions to latinamericans visiting or living in Spain for sure as it’s used a lot.

    “correr” is also “run” in Spanish, we share a lot of words with Portuguese . 🇵🇹




  • Yep, Western Europe, Spain more precisely. 23 days holidays but at least in my sector it is counting that the working days are Monday - Friday (meaning that you don’t need to include Saturdays in the counting).

    Then 13 - 14 bank holidays. And then in my sector an extra 2 days for “personal matters”, like going to the doctor or bank or paperwork appointment.

    I keep saying “in my sector” as I work in a normal office job, but teachers or other jobs may have more or differently distributed






  • When I was younger, I also though I’d be cool to work in America, but once you learn a bit about their conditions, it’s a big nope. Much better lifestyle in small cities with an average salary in EU and the 23 days vacation + 13 - 14 bank holidays. Mental health checks out. 😄

    About the Prod on calls, even if you “volunteer”, depending on the country and kind of job, they have to paid those “on call” hours even if there’s no calls at the end, and if there’s work required, the pay is higher.

    I’m like you, I wouldn’t exchange my free time no matter what. 🤘
