Balam, Chilango (Mexico Capital's Citizen) born in a brave neighborhood.

Son of the grunge and brit pop, on a crush for Alanis Morisette until well, thank you India... :)

Five events changed his life: Mexico's earthquake in 85, The death of his role model (Cayayita), Lobuki (his dog) Tartu Erasmus 2012 and LOVE.

If he find an enchanted lamp, probably he would use his wishes for other people. He doesn't care about money, and power. He loves cinema, literature, hug trees and hug everyone he can.

His treasures are knowledge and memories. His name (Balam) means Jaguar in mayan and that is nothing more than a useless interesting data. Good kisser, loves blindly and 'til today he doesn't hate anyone. Sincere as a butcher in a surgery.

PHILOSOPHY

Pour yourself of life with a big spoon.

"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results"A. Einstein.

"The only interesting answers are those that destroy the questions" Susan Sontag.
