Y llego Halloween y como no, teniamos que adaptarnos a la tradicion americana, eso si, mientras estemos en Chicago :). Es cierto que en Europa cada vez mas se esta tomando esta tracion y aunque es algo divertido y que no causa mal a nadie, siempre surge la polemica de estar americanizando todo, etc. Nuestra tradicion y la americana provienen del mismo origen y aunque a uno siempre le gusta que se adopten las tradiciones de nuestro propio pais, yo no creo que me hubiese disfrazado si hubiese estado en España, pero si que hubiese comprado buñuelos y huesos de santo, jeje!
De todos modos, aqui os enseño las fotos de la fiesta a la que fuimos, celebrada en casa de un compañero, Adam, tambien conocido como "Pepito".
Thomas y yo eramos probablemento los mas viejos de la fiesta, jeje! Pero bueno, la juventud tambien se contagia, asi que alli estuvimos un ratito, nada extravagante.
Mi disfraz, de bruja, lo cambie por el de "sexy diosa griega" del año pasado, con falda micrometrica, este año algo mas oscurito, pero original. Todo preparado en 10 minutos despues de trabajar!
Thomas se decidio por el mismo disfraz de romano del año pasado, con sandalias romanas y las piernas al aire. Ademas, contaba con su espada sentenciadora de justicia, jaja!
Halloween arrived and we had to adapt to the American tradition of course :), at least while we live in Chicago. It is a tradition that is celebrated more and more in Europe and even though it is very funny and nothing dangerous, there is always some discussion about taking all kind of American stuff and turn it into something European. We have our own tradition for these days in Europe, in Spain in particular and they come from a very similar origin. However, I don't think I would have dressed up if I had been in Europe. I'd have bought the typical Spanish sweets for this date "buñuelos" and "huesos de santo" hehe!
Here I show you some pictures of the party we went, which was celebrated in the house of one of my colleagues, Adam, aka Pepito ;0
Thomas and I were probably the oldest people at the party, hehe! but youth is contagious so there we were! We didn't stay until late like real party animals or nothing though...
I dressed up as a witch, changing my "sexy Greek Goddess" costume of last year which was ridiculously short...This time, something more discrete and dark, everything arranged during 10 minutes after work on Friday night!
Thomas decided to wear the same costume as last year "the Roman emperor" with real Roman sandals and naked legs :). Of course, he had his incredible fighting sword!!!
Thomas and I with our costumes :)
