"Cumbia" weekend

Cumbia weekend

Did you know I’m a cumbia singer now?

I’ll tell you this funny story and how my weekends have changed.

A few months ago I had a reunion with an old acquaintance.

I bumped into him unexpectedly and we started chatting to catch up.

And between stories that came and went, I ended up included as a singer in his cumbia band.

We were talking late and, even though it was late at night, I walked home and as I was doing it, I couldn’t believe what had just happened to me.

Without waiting for him and as if fallen from the sky, I became a cumbia singer.

Beyond being a job proposal with which I could earn extra money, it became the opportunity to do something I like, but even more, to meet charming people and share adventures with them.

Actually, that’s been one of the most fun activities I’ve done since I’ve been in this new city.

Rehearsals and presentations are on the weekends, so it’s a great way to spend Saturdays and Sundays before getting back to work.

So, this first experience with my colleagues, was very good and allowed me to do something like sing, which I like very much and I am happy with my soul.

In the video that I have produced, you will be able to know details of the story, see some of the essays and the presentation.

I hope you have also had a weekend as fun as mine and are encouraged to share your story in this community.
