Is someone earning a living or an extra with Substack? I'm in Spain but I'm curious if I can make it. Or any other way to earn an income. I see a lot of remote jobs but for US people most of the time.

I'm sorry, but once more, I was right about a person. Every single time I get a feeling about someone, it shows with time. "This person is nice, but there's something off" Nobody believes me until it's too late. As we say in Spanish: ojo de loca no se equivoca

Siempre que puedo/veo/recuerdo, comparto el contenido de otras cuentas porque me parece interesante y también es una manera de apoyar a la gente. Siempre me dan las gracias. Y ya. Nunca el apoyo es mutuo, y me estoy cansando de siempre dar...

August is going to be a month to shut myself away. Mostly because they close part of my subway line and buses well... it'll take double the time to go anywhere. It's a good thing, so I can focus on finishing my dissertation and writing a lot of things I want to write.

I'm looking for a job. I'm in Madrid, but I'm also looking for remote opportunities. I'm a photographer, a photography teacher, and a journalist (specialised in South Korea, history of photography and cinema). I speak Spanish, English and Korean (intermediate level in this case).

Busco trabajo en Madrid o remoto, principalmente de fotógrafa, profesora de foto & edición, redactora (me especializo en Corea del Sur, historia de la fotografía, cine). Hablo además de español, inglés y coreano. Podría desplazarme/mudarme más adelante pero ahora mismo tengo que estar en Madrid

I don't want to be rich, but I need a certain amount of money to apply for a visa and leave Spain. And a little bit more for surviving while I try to change that visa. I don't play the lotto, and I have no income right now... Should I rob a bank? 🤔 (I'm kidding, obviously...)

Quiero escribir de todo menos la tesis (sé de alguien que me va a regañar, pero en mi defensa diré que aun así, estoy escribiendo tesis). Pero es que hay tantos libros que quiero escribir... que aunque nadie me contrate ni pague por ello, los quiero hacer igual.

Is there any way I can find information about traditional cosmetic/beauty products of Korea? Like a history of cosmetics or something like that? It doesn't matter if it's in Korean. I found some info in English, but I'm looking for something more official

I think I should study some kind of marketing or how to make my sns more interesting. MiCorea is not getting any attention lately and I don't know what to do or how to present topics in a better way.

Time to step up my game. Go back to photography, do what I've always wanted to do and try and... let's see. I wanted to be an art photographer but one teacher discouraged me. It is too late to try to apply to art residencies without a portfolio -I'll try to make one asap- or a published novel?

Do you know any Spanish speakers interested in Korea culture, art, history? If that's the case, I'm your girl I run @_MiCorea_ (Instagram) where I share history, events (in Madrid), exhibitions, artists, etc. I'm growing slowly but surely, but any help would be amazing to get noticed 🖤
