😊 Personal Milestones
"Sobremesa": Felipe hosted the ‘Sobremesa’ event at Estancia Brazilian Steakhouse 🚀
Aleja: I went to Orlando with my husband!! It was his first time at the parks, so the experience was a total WOWWW!! We visited the new EPIC park and I even ran into MeliB’s sister there. We had the most amaaazing time!! 🎢✨
Agus: My boyfriend and I traveled to Tulum to celebrate our birthdays. We visited the cenotes, enjoyed amazing food, and explored the Mayan ruins. Such an incredible getaway! 🙌❤️
Ems: Last Sunday, I made my acting debut! It definitely wasn't on my bingo card for this year 😅 , but it was an amazing experience. My mom's choir, the longest-running choir in the Nikkei community, celebrated its 50th anniversary with a special concert at a local theatre. As part of the concert, they wanted to add some actind bids to have a running storyline. So, they asked me to play the elementary school teacher who forms a young choir. I must have played the part well because a few of the kids actually thought I was a real teacher and would ask me for permission to go to the bathroom. It was so much fun!
Den: Last week we celebrated Palta’s 🥑 birthday — my fur baby — who turned 3! We baked her a carrot cake (her favorite veggie). She’s also part of the Tecla Team, although she usually takes naps during work hours and is convinced that lunchtime is just playtime. Happy birthday, Paltisss! 💖🎉
