Discover a new restaurant

Being up to date with everything that happens around you is exhausting. Do not look for a fashionable place, simply, book in that restaurant that left you a good taste in your mouth or that other place that a friend recommended you and you still have not managed to go. What’s more, take your friend out for dinner.

How long has it been since you devoured a book without distractions, or listened to an entire vinyl, or prepared your favorite dish without feeling the need to register it on Instagram? Analog life can also be interesting.
