Be Happy!

Good morning everyone!

I have found this video in a colleague's blog, a teacher of Spanish, and I would like to share it with all of you. It reminds us of the important things in life. I think it's a perfect way to start the day. You can watch the Spanish version and enjoy the beautiful song called New Soul by the singer Yael Naim , and then watch the English version, which is very useful to practise the Imperative and learn new vocabulary as well. Don't miss any of them, it's worth watching them!
By the way, the music in the English version is awesome, Cuore di Sabbia by Pasquale Catalano.
