Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Find the perfect burger and tiramisu, get extra time for my own projects, go more to the movies.
A foreigner in a foreign country, kind of a foreigner in my own country too. I live in BCN with my wife, I work too much, I love movies/cinema, travels, music, Internet, wine, beers, burgers and food.
I have an online movies column, I wish I had enough time to work only on my own projects, I'm still on it.
PHILOSOPHY
"For the past thirty years I've been tormented by the same question: Is cinema more important than life?"
Truffaut

Movies: I simply love movies. I see all I can, all genres and countries.
Books: I've been reading much Jo Nesbo and Paul Auster lately, but I basically tend to read all, from Harry Potter (all 7 of them) to Goethe, including Latin-American classics like Benedetti, Cortázar, Fuentes and Garcia Márquez.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I remember a trip to Algonquin park, Ontario, Canada, with a full bright orange moon, a moose with its baby. Simply amazing picture in my mind.
