About Me

So far I have lived and traveled in over thirty countries and four continents.
But it wasn’t until recently that I decided to gather all my pictures, texts and videos and start uploading them systematically. Reason why I created ‘Soles Of Wind’ which is also a tribute to French poet and explorer Arthur Rimbaud. His lover, poet Paul Verlaine, used to call him: “The man with the soles of wind” because he would travel so much.

My grandfather was an airplane pilot and traveled dozens of cities around the world. Following his example, my family and I began to travel at a very young age. When I was eleven years old, I had already visited different cities of the East coast of the United States. At the age of sixteen, I made my first long international trip by land: from Quito, Ecuador, to several cities in Peru, until arriving to the ruins of Machu Picchu.

When I turned eighteen I decided to explore Europe where I studied Hispanic Literature. After Europe I lived for five years in Buenos Aires, Argentina, where I went to film school. Living in Argentina gave me the chance to explore other countries of the South American region: Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Chile and Perú.
