Hi there! What's up?

My name is Mirko and I am moving abroad from Viruguay to Hispania in no time! I guess it's time to say goodbye to my parents and Boris, a true fella of mine... Boy, sure I will miss them.

What? I am going to live in Barcino from now on? Where Marcelo lives!? That's great, I'll reunite with my old childhood friend, but were we just that?

Let this marvelous story enthrall you with its wonderful landscape backgrounds of real life Buenos Aires and Barcelona. Dive into this sea of expanding feelings and let yourself fall in the spell of our beautiful lyrical music. For a brief time, get in Mirko's shoes and engage in the adventure of emigration. Will feelings expand at the same time Mirko expands his horizons?

This story got me centeright in the feels. By the end of it, I was centerleft speechless. A legendary mishap, and also a relatable one.

But for real, it was a very heartwarming story with a lot of love put into it. One of the most powerful relationship developments I've seen in the jam thus far. The music, CGs, relationship, and overall aesthetic made for a very touching package. It ranks very highly for me. Excellent work, Karl and team!
