A white coat, a pair of white tennis and a voice sweet but "slightly" out of tune started the night. Dolores O'Riordan was on stage, singing for the first time after 7 years out.

The subject of this post is the copy of an initiative that my flatmate started. She was taking pictures during 365 days and sending it to her closest friends and family during her stay in Spain as " Erasmus " in Madrid. So, starting tomorrow I will be posting a photo and my experience in a specific day, which I hope you enjoy.
