I groomed more lovely dogs and got quite emotional at seeing how scared and vulnerable some of them were. I got quite teary and Paula and Laura decided to choose that moment to visit me in work and ask for a photo with the Erasmus flag which was great 😂😂 I have been really enjoying working for my supervisor Silvia so far, she’s been a great help and creates a lovely calm and pleasant environment to be in.
After work, we saw just around the corner from our accommodation where they make the huge thrones for the Holy Week in Malaga during Easter. We had learned about them on our city tour the day before but seeing them in real life and up close, and going inside to see how they make them was really surreal. The size of them really astonished me. We met some of the men that build and carry the platforms through the city, they are part of a brotherhood that perform this ritual around the city every year. The man showing us around was so so nice, he showed us photos of how he has been bringing his daughter every single year since she was born to the festivals, and showed us photos of his family every year for almost a decade. It was really nice and sentimental and gave me a whole new perspective of the ceremonies during Holy Week; I’d definitely like to experience the festival one day.
