Here in Mexico I've heard the use of the indirect form: "No me dio ganas." Is this generally common, and can we use it in different constructions, such as "Me da ganas viajar a Guatemala."?
Where does the word "Librólogo" come from, please? Is it a play on the word Librero/a?

One of the listening exercises uses the parase "martes y trece" which I believe would translate to "Tuesday the 13th". Please consider adding that method of stating a date to the lesson on dates as I checked and there is no current discussion or example of this usage that I could find. Thanks for all you do!
That sentence "yo huelo siempre bien" translates to I always smell good.
"huelo" in this sense means for the subject to have a scent, not like "I always smell something good"
The sentence "nosotros olemos las rosas del jardín" translates to we smell the roses in the garden.
in this sense, "olemos" means to physically perceive a smell
