Wow, this is really good exyle.
You know what? I live in hostel and after living away from my home for studies, now I feel like the best time is that what you spend with your family, so try to spend as much as you could time with your father and try to talk to him. Discuss things.
yo vivo lejos de mis padres y realmente cuando puedo hago tambien unas parrilladas para comer en familia.. eso es importante, saludos
