My life soundtrack

Image
  I'm not a fan, but there’s a band whose songs mean a lot to me.  The first time I listen of Glass Animals was   5 years ago. It was a very lonely moment in my life where I felt sad every day without knowing what to do about it, until the song “The Other Side Of Paradise” found me. In some way, that song helped me to understand that sadness is something you live with, and it can’t disappear because it is part of yourself. But also, every time I saw a video-clip or I listened to one of this band’s songs, I pictured stories that I considered worth to be told. I imagined a movie, or a series, of a man’s ghost seeing his son growing up, of a young soul abandoning his family to make his dream of being famous true, of a girl that lives eternally in the memory of the one person that considered her special, etc. Glass Animals ’ songs still inspire me, to continue imagining and transmiting stories that are as human as ourselves.

The country I would like to visit

The country I’d like to visit is Norway. It’s one of the closest countries to the north of the planet, that’s the reason why I like to think that Norway is the end of the world, the place where you can settle without having to see the rest of the world. I know it’s a cold country, where it snows a lot, and that’s exciting for me because I'll love to be surrounded by snow. Crime is low, the life expectancy is high, it has beautiful places, and its culture is something that I really admire. I’d like to walk through Oslo’s streets full of snow, watch a sky different from what I use to, and mostly, go as far to country’s north at least once, see with my own eyes a part of the end of the world. I don’t see myself living in Norway, for different reasons, but it's a place that I long to escape from the rest of the world. I’d like to have plenty of time to get to know Norway, enough not to have the feeling that the world is an impossible place to live in.
