Empathy as a strategy

Empatía como estrategia

We often hear about empathy, and certainly many of you have heard its definition as ‘the ability to put yourself in somebody else shoes’.

I stay in the village

Yo me quedo en el pueblo

Holiday began and I started to pack; I was going few days to the village, a place with less than one hundred inhabitants at the top of a mountain where, hopefully, you don’t have enough service to check your mail and your whatsapps.
