Hygge - cozy contentment.

A life with less enhances the small and best things in life. Squeezing the essence and beauty of those rare moments in life to slowly savour and flavour them and then to softly replay them while sipping tea on a calm Saturday morning.

Forever intrigued and curious about stories... their details, mental pictures, feelings, motions... A respect for a life and inspiration to live.

Joy and appreciation for the colour and music in my surroundings, in people, in feelings and in actions.

Oranges, papayas, almonds, tomatoes, olives, and tea... Devout esteem for the tastes, aromas and glimpses of food in all its shapes and forms.

Sincerest appreciation for abstract art... beauty in what is not said, expressed nor fully detailed. Letting my brain put together patterns, stories, images... noticing the brush strokes, the drips, the layers, the themes. Explicitness diminishes my thirst for the art to explore.

Easygoing, introspective, curious, competitive, shy, warm...

PHILOSOPHY: Make myself uncomfortable; stretch, disturb and grow -one hopes.

"We are defined not by how we cope with the familiar and the comfortable but by our reaction to the unusual, the disruptive, the surprising. How we respond in the face of a challenge tells us far more about who we really are than all our rhetoric about attitudes, values or aspirations. Nothing clarifies our priorities like a crisis, and nothing keeps the brain active like an encounter with the unexpected" - Hugh MacKay

Discovering new ones everyday

If need me to be explicit: art in all its forms, politics, history, data, methodologies, decisions, behaviour, stories, communication, music, sport (running, cycling, swimming, bjj, mtb, yoga, etc.), anthropo- related, concerned-citizen-of-the-world array of topics (what are we doing to our beautiful planet...).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camped in the Sahara desert

One memorable:
At age 10 while crossing the Amazon jungle the bus we're travelling on overturned. We, the passengers, got out, cut some trees, pivoted and turned the bus with the wood, and continued our journey... Lost a shoe in the floods, sipped some amazonian coffee, saw buses crossing rivers on rafts, heard babies crying... The strongest memory imprinted is the courage of my mom leading everyone in those rainy days. People with hope and an objective is a pretty awesome thing to witness.
