I spent last week in Merida México and followed my mom around as she said “Look at that“ to no less than 10 things per city block.
here’s a short list of just a few of the things she pointed out to me and why she found them of interest:
building (pink) building (new paint) building (window boarded up “why”) dog (big nipples) man (one leg) man (”Chinese”) building (had a tree growing out of it) wall (blue “look at that blue wall”) building (“some sort of store in there”) man (no legs) woman (red shirt “now that’s a red shirt”) man (jogging/“exercise is good for you”) man (”tall for Mexican”) old car (“was there last year too”) Ice cream store (”went there/not good”) building (green) tree (big)
Anyways we went to a music museum (Palacio de la Musica) and it was great. learned about a lot of great songs and artists and this one stuck out to me.

Shakira’s songs in spanish. My personal believe is that sometimes she dumbs down the lyrics for english listeners.

Been having a lot of fun with Bad Bunny’s latest passion project, so here’s a breakdown of my favourites.
NUEVAYoL - an album that opens with a banger is always a great sign. Showcases perfectly the Latin/pop vibes you’ll find on the rest of the album
BAILE INoLVIDABLE - starts unsuspecting, and then it kidnaps you into a ballroom,  forces you to salsa, and finally slaps you with the best piano solo (I dare you to listen to it and not make a stank face)
TURiSTA - I’m just a sucker for a good ballad on the guitar
CAFé CON RON - I wouldn’t mind having this as my morning alarm, Los Pleneros de la Cresta are so much fun
LO QUE SE PASÓ A HAWAii - everything you’ll need for your hispanic vilan era
DtMF - are you in love? I’m in love
LA MuDANZA - if you aren’t dancing yet, you better now
