About Me

CURRENT MISSION

When I was young and fun (before I got a full time job), I enjoyed travelling places, having experiences and meeting people from anywhere. I am getting that back.

ABOUT ME

I did a lot of studying, got pretty good marks and found a fine job. Lucky I think, but standard so far. I am now more into designing my own lifestyle.

My biggest interest now is travelling places, meet new people and get involved in different projects: business, charity, manage classical music players, short films and art.

Before I got my current job I lived and worked in Dublin, London, New Jersey and Kolkata. I got friends and know people from many coutries already and don't want to stop doing that. It's more difficult with a full time job, but I am working on it.

I currently live in Madrid, but my apartment is quite small so it is difficult to fit one more person, however it could happen in some cases I guess...

I enjoy playing squash, padel and swimming. Among my other interests, I am learning to dance salsa and putting some effort on that now, I also like giving speeches (not that I get many opportunities so far, but I like it).

When I am not doing any of that, I am out with my friends, which I love it. Madrid is cool. I am a Real Madrid fan, by the way. RM is cool as well.

For a deeper understanding of my inner self, just check out any description of what a Capricorn is like. I have never been into that stuff but, I found out it is pretty accurate in my case.

PHILOSOPHY

Worrying is like a rocking chair, it entertains you but takes you nowhere.
