It is said that January does not have to be the month of beginnings since it is a human measure of time and if it were in accordance with nature, the year would begin in March along with spring.
So if you don't feel like it's the beginning of something, it's because our bodies are wise, and here we want our readers not to force themselves into things but to continue experiencing what it means to be in San Miguel which is basically having a good time surrounded by a beautiful city in an artistic environment throughout the year.
