A long weekend. We've turned around the environment and we've taken advantage of it to make the picoteo. Tourists making selfies. Routes for tourists, rentals, shops, hotels, parkings, menu dishes, sign signs in all languages of the world. Tourists turn the usual places into strange places. The ride is no longer the same. In the curse of Marmar, we: tourism is transforming our cities, towns and territories as a wild animal and artificially raising the price of picoteo. The mayor, the politicians, the entrepreneurs are driving, designing, building the urban strategy.
We've inherited a grandfather's apartment. It's not very big, but it has a dignified size. The facade gives to the front of the walk, is part of the urban history of an era. In the block of grandpa's houses there are already few people, most have become holiday homes for tourists. The building has a medium architectural interest but the City Hall has built the environment, it is very modified since the time when the grandfather bought the floor, and it is a chick under the eyes of the stranger. We have searched for the prices of rent of the neighbors on the web page that advertises the accommodation service. We have looked with astonishment at the amount of money. If my grandfather knew that. But neighbors say it's easy to rent, there's a huge demand, it can serve for long months or weekends. They say everything is sold. My grandfather's weight, with the extra monthly income he can provide, would allow us to move more smoothly in our domestic economy. Well managed, we can make a money bag with the weight of grandfather and allow us to expand the future university possibilities of our sons and daughters.
It's not our speculation, it's not ours as the wildest companies. Ours will be used for the generations of tomorrow, with a local life project behind us, we say, trying to convince our system of values. Just to have the same performance as neighbors, no more. Instead of the empty house. A unique opportunity.

I received your e-mail in personal mail on the strike portals. At first, like many others, I thought it was to let you know what options we have in the face of the strike. But no, the e-mail received was a political and communicative movement against the strike.
I will confess... [+]
This weekend I've been thinking about the word 'aesthetic' in relation to a phrase said by a friend: “This work is aesthetic.” I have studied the etymology of the word aesthetic, it seems that its meaning was originally perceived through the senses, and it was later associated... [+]
The other day in Bilbao, I met a friend at the Bira bar. We were very happy at the Tar and I said: “Of course, since you’re Guipúzcoa, hahahaha.” And he insisted that he was not Guipuzcoan. Without me understanding it, I kept saying, “Ah! Is it not? You were born in New... [+]
Zalantza asko izan ditut, meloia ireki ala ez. Ausartuko naiz, zer demontre! Aspaldian buruan dudan gogoeta jarri nahi dut mahai gainean: ez da justua erditu den emakumearen eta beste gurasoaren baimen-iraupena bera izatea. Hobeto esanda, baimen-denbora bera izanda ere, ez... [+]
We are in the midst of a world imperialist offensive led by the Western bourgeoisie. The form that the imperialist offensive has taken is that of war, with all its variants: economic war, cognitive and cultural war, lawfarr; and, of course, military war. Western imperialism has... [+]
I just saw a series from another sad detective. All the plots take place on a remote island in Scotland. You know how these fictions work: many dead, ordinary people but not so many, and the dark green landscape. This time it reminded me of a trip I made to the Scottish... [+]
In recent years, the concept of industrial policy has reappeared strongly at various levels. The organization that was the hammer of neoliberalism, the International Monetary Fund, today insists that markets have been pressured to allocate resources efficiently and solve these... [+]
To be honest, I don't know why I'm writing this. In today’s hostile environment, opinions of this kind are not well received. Perhaps LUZ will not publish this because it does not correspond to the opinions they have published so far (but if they have finally decided to publish... [+]
On January 15, the techno-business lobby called Cedarios presented its 6th report, Euskadi and the European Union, the shared destiny of prosperity and competitiveness. This neoliberal Think Tank, made up of eminent experts drawn from the world of finance, presented a magical... [+]
We Basques move our feet behind the witness of Korrika to proclaim that we want to survive as a Basque people in favor of our language, with the aim of the Basque Country we desire.

And for another year, the unions have organized prefabricated strikes for us. And we, individually, will decide whether or not to join the strike, without the need for any assembly at the school.
The strike model that I was taught is no longer in vogue, it seems. In my... [+]
Life surrounds everything, it is limited and fragile. To live good lives, it seems to me that the body knows what to do, while the mind, although it knows (when it is well informed), often sees the body deliberately silence. In this silence the mind opens itself to relations... [+]
