Mission.

Embracing life as it is.

About me.

I have been lucky enough of getting my education in many places and different contexts. First in Mexico where I studied political science. Then in Sweden where I did my master in history. Also briefly in Portugal in an exchange program and in Finland where I spent a couple of months studying conceptual history. And I recently obtained a Ph.D. in history in Scotland and I again exploring new territories and re-encountering old ones with new eyes. In fact, more than places I like to discover people, what they think, do, believe, and dream about. In a way, either by actual traveling or by reading I am constantly visiting foreign lands (historical or fictional) trying to see how others experience life.

Philosophy.

"Si sobrevives, si persistes, canta, sueña, emborráchate.
Es el tiempo del frío: ama, apresúrate.
El viento de las horas barre las calles, los caminos.
Los árboles esperan: tú, no esperes.
Este es el tiempo de vivir, el único".

Lasset uns unser Ziel so rein, so hell, so schlackenfrei annehmen, als wir's konnen; denn wir laufen in Irrlicht und Dammerung und Nebel.

Kärleken är en otämd fågel; om du älskar mig jag älskar dig inte, om jag älskar dig, se upp!,
