So from the store put our two cents because Girona is a city more livable and that the maximum Girona discover personal wellbeing which is moving every day to pedal stroke. "
This means that no longer will write more? "Not at all! -Black Pernau. I stopped exercising daily journalism, but I can assure you I will continue writing. I can not understand my day to day without writing and without being surrounded by bikes. Both aspects are inseparable parts of my life".
