The Year of The Snake

Last week, our dear Colombian friend Blackmount wished me a happy Chinese New Year by this so funny way. Oh, yeah, you have read correctly, this new year is the YEAR OF THE SNAKE, the symbol of protection and intelligence. Thank you very much!, ¡muchas gracias, Amigo! :-)

He looks very intelligent, don't you think the same?

Protect me, darling!

And I have found other ways to celebrate it:

"Do not despise the snake for having no horns"

(Chinese proverb)

HAPPY NEW YEAR OF THE SNAKE FOR YOU ALL!!!
