Quarantine for a dog


Hi! I am Toby, a little puppy. I live in a flat with my mother Kim. Kim is a great human, she plays with me whenever I ask her for and she gives me delicious food.

Kim has been more stressed than usual in the last few days, I feel it in our home environment.

She goes out fewer times and se takes me on very short walks. Oh, and she spends a lot of time doing her things with that object she calls “computer”. She says it is very important for our money. Actually, I don’t understand that. What does our money have to do with a computer? In my opinion, humans are so obsessed with money.

Well, talking about our walks, I want to get out of our home more than ten minutes please!

Our walks before were not so brief as now, and I met other dogs in the street, there were a lot of people, we went to unknown but amusing places for me… Now, we just go to the park around the buildings on the opposite sidewalk. The furthest, we have been, was to a little park with barely two trees near the pet store, close to where we live.

I´m starting to think Kim is becoming lazier, because whenever I bring my leash to her, she leaves it on the top of the living room table, and she spends whole afternoons lying on the couch, with the TV on. When she lies on the couch, I snuggle with her. She looks so cute when sleeping!

I also miss our neighbours, Bertha, Otto and Thor. Bertha, Otto and Kim looked like very happy humans when I played with my friend Thor. I was happy too, and I suppose Thor was as well. We were like a happy family, I don`t know what happened.

Oh, and how not to mention Kim’s parents. They are very kind people. I used to go to their home with Kim, where they pet me a lot, and I feel very loved. We haven’t been to their home for a long time.

Now that I think about it, Kim used to mention me a word that I suspect  it has to do with all this: “coronavirus”. It seems to be a bad thing. I’ve got an idea! I’ll tell Kim I’m gonna bite that stupid coronavirus!

    I found it funny and original. We must not only give the point of view of humans but also of other animals, ... such as dogs!

    This article is interesting because makes us see quarantine from a different perspective, I found it really original.

Just a "simple" doctor

COVID-19 has forced us to face situations for which we were not prepared. As a consequence of the current pandemic, we all have had to change our daily routines. We have changed from practically being with one another to being under a strict lockdown within just four walls. It is a difficult experience for humans. Although everything feels strange and it’s easy to be fearful, I’m learning new ways to be patient . However, the experience that my father is going through in his professional career is being much more difficult. For my father life has changed perhaps even more dramatically. As a doctor, he says he would have never imagined living something like this disease. He is doing his best,  both with the sick patients and along with us, his close family. Although he always tried not to bring home his work problems, unfortunately it has been quite the opposite. He tells me everything about his job. The family environment is now his great and unconditional support. ...

Studying in Canada

Hi there, friends! I have been in an exchange semester in Canada. So, here are some of my Canadian experiences as a Spanish student. Canada is divided into 10 provinces. I went to a western province called Alberta. We used 2 flights to get there. Everything started on the 1st of September. I was terrified but very excited for this new experience. We left Madrid in an 8 hours flight to Toronto where we cached our second flight to Calgary. Everything was different. The language, the houses, the culture and even the people. I went to a city called Cochrane. Cities and town were made up with the same small houses all lined in the streets. There were ponds, lakes and lots of roads and highways that crossed them. The first day of school was the 3th. We took the yellow school bus that appears in all American films. The first day was chaotic, lots of information and new things all at once. The second day was pretty difficult too. I went to my 3 courses by myself in very bi...
