Yo, laggard

Julia Varela Tendencias. Movimientos. Cosas que pasan. En la carrera de ir a la última, me reconozco entre la tribu laggard (rezagado in English). Admiro tanto las joyas impresas en 3D como un buen pincho de tortilla. Lo cool y lo castizo, aquí se habla de eso. De modernidades viejas, de antigüedades nuevas. De lo bonito. Poliédrica, multitasking. Gallega de lacón con grelos y madrileña inevitable de Malasaña. Periodista casi siempre
