...:: Interesting people in Leon ::...

Hi again guys! =)

How are you? I know that a lot of time has passed since the last time we write to you, really apologizes, but we haven't got enought time!

Now I'm going to talk about interesting people in León. In fact, there aren't most interesting people, I'm going to talk about some celebrities, like for instance:

  • Café Quijano: Is a music group formed by three brothers. They begun their career in 1997 but they became popular with their song La Lola”, which is now the name of their bar here in the center of León. They have published four discs but now they are separated and one of them have begin a new solo career.

  • Another celebrity is Manuel Martínez: He is a Spanish athlete, from León, specializing in the test of throwing of weight, dominator in his test in Spain in the current decade. He is a very versatile person and in addition with a great aptitude to make compatible other activities with the athletics. He has taken part in many Olympic Games, between which they emphasize Beijin 2008, where unfortunately he was eliminated in the phase of selection.



  • Another one who I imagine you have known is our prime minister José Luís Rodríguez Zapatero. He is also from León. He is a socialist Spanish politician, and the fifth prime minister of Spain from the Transition, after his victory in the general elections of 2004. He is the current prime minister, after confirming his position in the general elections of 2008.
  • Another important team that I think you haven't knonw is ADEMAR. East is an team of handball and is really good. The people are in the habit of supporting them very much, are something brilliant. It has became into one of the top teams of Spain, to the same BM's level. Ciudad Real, FC Barcelona and Portland San Antonio of Pamplona, even relying on minor presupposed that these.

I don't remember anymore interesting people. I hope you like it.

Regards from Spain.

Hola Paula! Me gustó leer lo que escribiste sobre algunas personas interesantes de León. Tu inglés es muy buena.

Escuché a "La Lola" y también a otras canciones (por YouTube) de Café Quijano. Es un grupo muy divertido y bueno.

Tiene que ser bueno para la ciudad de León que el primer ministro es de allí.

Goodbye!

Hola!
Nunca oí sobre las personas que introduzcas en su blog, pero parecen muy interesante.

Tenemos muchas personas famosas de Boston, tambien. Había revolucionarios como a Samuel Adams, actores como a Ben Affleck y a Matt Damon, y el candidato presidencial de 2004 John Kerry.

It's very interesting that Zapatero is from your region. Is your autonomy known for being socialist?
For example, in the US my home state of Indiana is known for being a Republican state; whereas, the state of Massachusetts (where MIT is) is a Democratic state. Are you guys a socialist autonomy?

Cuáles son los partidos principales en la política? Cuál apoyas tú? Y tu autonomía? En general tiene la gente de España opiniones muy fuertes sobre el político? Gracias para tu tiempo. Hasta luego.

Nunca e visto el deporte “handball”. ¿Cómo se juega? Yo tendría que decir que uno de los deportistas mas famosos en los EEUU es Michael Phelps. Es un nadador olímpico. Ha ganado varias medallas en varios eventos. El grupo musical mas famoso tendría que ser “The Beatles”. No estoy seguro quien el político mas famoso. Ala mejor es el presidente John F. Kennedy.
