🧡 Personal Milestones

Meli B: Turning 30 should be celebrated to the fullest! For me, my birthday is a very special day to share with all the people I love. This year was beyond my dreams, an amazing party that included an afterparty starting at midnight on a "chiva," which is like a traditional Colombian giant bus, but it was a party chiva, so we were cruising around Medellin and celebrating. On Sunday, I celebrated with my family at home. Much more than I ever dreamed of!

Majo: I loved the snow, and experiencing it was one of the best days of my life. This photo was taken at Cerro Catedral, the largest ski complex in Latin America.

Aleja: I was on an island called "BarĂş" for the bachelorette party of two of my best friends from school. It was incredible, and we had a lot of fun!

Steph: A week in Bariloche, which is known as the gateway to Patagonia in southern Argentina. It has some of the most beautiful landscapes I've seen, and I was incredibly lucky to have experienced snow in autumn.

Meet Majo's pet, Sherlock 🍬!

Here are some fun facts that Majo shared about him:

It's named after a well-known fictional character, as Majo was watching the show when it joined the family. It's a very energetic dog and quite the gentleman, enjoying spending lots of time with children. Initially, it couldn't stand Billy (her cat), but now they are best friends.

We watched the Fallout series; it's not the best series in the world or anything, but I found it entertaining, and the characters were interesting. They represent different types of players quite well: the new and naive player, the one who has already put in some hours, and the experienced player who is playing for the second time. They also represented the whole vault theme quite well.

Good movies have been hard to come by lately, but to pass the time on Sunday, we watched A Knight's Tale, which was fairly light and entertaining.
