Cumpleaños Feliz for little ones in and around Barcelona

Wednesday, July 06, 2011

By Christine Kristofits

My baby girl is almost four! And what that means is that I need to start to think about throwing her a birthday party. If I lived in the USA, I imagine that I would invite family, friends and a few neighbors over for a BBQ in the backyard. Come up with a theme, go to the party store and buy cups, plates, balloons, etc following that theme. Order a cake or bake it myself with that cartoon character on it (you get the idea).

Olga Feliu and Fundació MONA

Wednesday, June 29, 2011

Olga Feliu knew from a young age that she would work with animals, because she always wanted to be a veterinarian. Born and raised in Catalonia, her grandfather (and later her father) owned a pig farm. Around the age of fourteen, her family sold the farm, even though she pleaded with her father to keep it so that she could run it when she got older. He told her that had she been a boy, maybe things would be different.
