Like last year, I wanted to start the New Year in a tango atmosphere, and that’s why we went to Tangueria to spend the last hours of 2009 and count down to 2010. DJ Emilie was choosing the tandas while we nibbled on panettone and drank bubbles.

Apparently, it was started up a few weeks ago and the first two sessions were overseen by Adrian Costa. The aim […]
