CURRENT MISSION

Live, to imagine, create, to change

ABOUT ME

My curiosity expands the limits of myself. I live to capture the small moments that are intangible into words.
I´m constantly alert to new sounds, scents, images, emotions, face expressions.

"I live to suck the marrow out of life".

PHILOSOPHY

I´m responsible for my life. I´m responsible for my own decisions, no matter the result.
My actions or omissions, my choises have an societal impact, including(mainly in fact) the "little ones", so, I´m also responsible for the society were I exist.
More than words or flourished discourses, coherence with my humanist believes is my guideline.

Music, Movies, and Books

...I could write a long text here.
However , it is more captivating to share the cultural creations that I find most interesting in a cheerfull conversation.

I can briefly say that my favorite book is Walden , by Henry David Thoreau.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Probably it is not a amazing thing , but one night , in the middle of the mountain, only with the light of the full moon I found myself surrounded by a pack of foxes.
