All of the collaborators have different lifestyles and their hobbies are varied but they have got something in common, this is they enjoy upseting their stomach with food from their early childhood. As you know eating is one of the greatest pleasures in life and this group lives it this way:

UMAIMA

I am  a great fan of Mediterranean food. I love all kind of food, although I prefer "cocido madrileño",salads (all kinds), Moroccan food (tajins, cous cous, all the confectionery,rgayf, etc) and Japanese food:  sushi (maki, sashimi, nigiris, etc) and noodle.

I enjoy sharing breakfasts with my family. A very early meal that consists on fried eggs with manchego cheese, olives (all kind are good :) ) and Moroccan tea. 

I also like junk food but what I really like is having vegetables and fruit for my meals. I love all kinds of fruits, specially custard apple and persimmon.

The best memories are always around food or/and drinks...

   CELESTE

Hi my name is Celeste Escalera Béjar and  I' m 18 years old. I live in Guadalajara with my parents, my brother my cousin and my dog (Ajax).

I love any type of sport, I have practiced basketball, frontennis, skiing and swimming, the last one I currently coninue practising since I love being in contact with water and it is because of that I work as a lifeguard every summer.

Like all my friends I love all type of food, specially the one of my mother and my grandma, like their soup, steak, migas or potaje. Also I like food from other countries specially the chinese one. And at least but not last I love eating bread since my family has a traditional bakery and I can have hand made bread when ever I want.

I spend my free time watching tv series like Hawaii 5.0 or youtube videos such us the ones of Verdeliss or Fatima Cantó. My favourite films are the ones that have action as well as a love story like Sin salida.

I hope you like our blog: Los Gochos

RAQUEL

Hey there! I’m Raquel and I’m a vegan girl. It doesn’t mean a don’t like food, I do love food! :) I eat everything except animals and food that comes from the animals - I get enough protein if you were doubting hehe. Above all, I love chocolate.

I’m also an animal lover, no matter if they are insects, mammals, fishes, reptiles… I also got a little dog called Buddy at my mum’s house.

I’m from Santander, although now I’m living at a university residence in Alcalá by my own to go to University. When I have vacations, I return home to see my family and friends.

I love sports and I’m quite good at them. For the last five years, I’ve been at a handball team in my city. Now, I train at the gym to gain strength. I like to set up goals to motivate myself and see the progress.

Finally, I enjoy travelling, getting to know different places and people. I hope to have the chance to travel all around the world or at least to be in all the countries. 

CRISTINA

Hey! I'm Cristina and I love Italian food above all. Pasta, pizza and rice are my preferences in any of their variations and styles. 

I also like big breakfasts with eggs, ham, bacon, cheese, etc., what we can understand as an English breakfast. 

I really enjoy having lunch and dinner with my parents even though we usually have different things because what I absolutely hate are vegetables in general. 

Lately, I am drinking a lot of tea, mostly white or black vanilla tea. But the best thing I can eat is chocolate: white, with milk, dark, with orange, hot chocolate...
