Overview
About Me
I'm an open minded, curious, fine art student and artist, interested in photography, film, foreign cultures, cities, countries, and its people.
I plan to travel through Europe, with no fix destination, eager to discover the traces of our common history and shared but heterogeneous cultures. I consider this way of knowledge by traveling as part of my Phd programme. My intention is also to learn new skills, practice and try what I know already and therefore give also my hand, help or knowledge where can be useful.
I'm also interested in learning or improving languages —as an unavoidable way to really access and get to know the culture you visit— I can speak english, french, german and italian... Still learning though!
Mid and eastern Europe fascinates me, as I come from west and seems in some aspects very different from my homeland (Andalucia, Spain), but also admire eastern heritage culture and look with interest the development of his contemporary history and future.
I've been lucky and meet wether for studies or short term holidays Italy, France, Germany, UK, Netherlands and Ukraine. Out of Europe, Western Sahara and Ohio. Nowadays my wish is to travel in a different way.
