April started well, with an avocado with more flesh than pit. Life is good 🙂 It was a month with duality. It seemed like very polarized. There were moments with a lot of energy and others with a lot of rest. But also the perfect mixture of both at some point. I had a lot of work but also a lot of things to enjoy. When I say it this way it seems like I don’t really…
May has arrived. Here, in the north of Spain, we are having our usual weather. Raining day and night with no chance of sunny skies. Well, maybe not that much, but it’s been raining quite a bit. I like rainy weather, specially when I have to work for hours inside the studio. I’m sure your are thanking the weather too if it’s raining now with the hope that it will be sunny once the quarantine ends, am…
Hey! How’s your April going. Mine has become a hectic month. I’m getting ready to record a music video, while we are quarantined. Which means there’s only two people doing the job of a whole team. Which means: Stress levels going up. But I must say, I’ve been training for this kind of situations. Not quarantines. Working more than I should has always been one of my traits, but what I’ve been training for has been staying chill…
It’s April, at last. Time seems to move slower these days, am I right? I’ve made a playlist for the month, but as most of you are staying home, maybe only one is too short. What do you do while you listen to playlists? Tell me the activity you usually do when you listen to music and I can make a personalized playlist especially for the quarantine. I usually work on light stuff while I listen,…
I love this dessert. The good thing about it is that it is so energetic and so healthy that it makes a perfect breakfast, afternoon snack, dessert after lunch…you name it! The base is simple: bananas, peanut butter and cacao nibs. That’s it…the rest is up to your imagination. A couple of weeks ago, Lucía (a friend) and I decided that the best way to keep in touch was to meet for breakfast on Sundays. And I must say, we…
You know, when people eat meat they usually go to meat when they feel lazy to cook. Anything easier than throwing a steak on a pan and cook it for a couple of minutes? When people go vegan, they go for the easiest substitutes like veggie patties or seitan steaks. They are usually highly processed foods, so that’s a no-no for me. When people go plant-based and want to follow a healthy lifestyle, they go for tofu or tempeh,…
A year ago I was involved in a car accident. It was very scary mainly for three reasons: 1) It happened in France and I was supposed to arrive in London for our tour the next day. 2) Carlos tried to avoid the car from crashing four times, but the ice made it impossible to stay on the road. 3) The car got out of the road and turned on one side, making it incredibly difficult to get out of…
Don’t panic if you don’t have time for making dessert this year. Just do me a favour, soak a cup of raw cashews right now. C’mon, go! Come back after you do it, I’ll be waiting for you here. Done? Now keep reading this post and make the cake in 15 minutes. You only have to soak the cashews 6 hours before, so you are safe. You can read this post, you can read a couple more posts from this…
This is going to be a long post. I know that for some of you plant-based means vegan (aka products that don’t harm any animal) But what does vegan mean to you? Apparently every word means something different for everyone these days. It’s OK. I understand the food industry is trying to bring up new terms in order to get more people happy. Vegan has becom e biased for some people and plant-based seems to be a good replacement. Although…
When I got sick a couple of months ago I knew I had to change my diet. Not that I was doing anything wrong. I wasn’t drinking or smoking, I was eating a lot of veggies, walking more than 10k every day (I couldn’t run because of a knee injury). What I mean is, I was what people would consider a healthy person. But the truth is, I really wasn’t. As always, my researcher soul made me look for answers….
