CURRENT MISSION

Trying to learn about the spiritual similitudes between me and the others

ABOUT ME

I was born at the dawn of the comunist era and growing in the sunset of the aparent freedom, I like playing piano with all the lights turned off, I like to bring simple solutions for smart briefs and viceversa, I wonder daily about the nothingness of human being and I'd like to believe that all my fellows are definitelly good.

PHILOSOPHY

"By offering, you shall obtain" N.Steinhardt

"Anything has the potential to be a symbol" Allan Fletcher
