Pepita Bernat celebrated her 107th birthday with the same love of partying that has accompanied her all her life. After surviving the Civil War and a marriage she now describes as “the biggest mistake of her life”, she escaped to Geneva, worked, and returned to Spain to launch several businesses of her own.

At 73, she found love with Carlos, whom she met while dancing. Today, she still goes to La Paloma in Barcelona every Sunday and shares her simple philosophy: work, have fun, and always keep moving. 🎉💚
