Aspirante a "bon vivant"...

ABOUT ME

All about me? Come on... what if I write something here... people would think that's all I am... which COULD not be true.

PHILOSOPHY

Una filosofía personal, como un manual de pautas a seguir, es poco práctico por no decir completamente falso... las situaciones cambian, y cada uno es cada uno según sus circunstancias. Estas son algunas cosas que me gustan:

Me gusta viajar, sí, un tópico poco destacable en una web como ésta, pero que supongo que hay que contar, ya sabéis de lo que hablo.

Me gustan los idiomas, a través de los que nos podemos aproximar a toda una cultura y a pueblos diversos, con mucho que enseñar.

Me gusta ver la gastronomía como un arte, con una primordial función social que necesita, sobre todo, de una sobremesa tranquila para charlar.

Me gusta la fotografía, como forma de interpretación de lo que tengo a mi alrededor (photo gallery: https://www.flickr.com/people/90743791@N06/ )

Me gusta enseñar mi tierra, y contar con alguien de la zona cuando viajo que haga lo mismo por mi.

El último tópico que falta es lo de conocer gente... pero eso lo dejo para darle un toque de misterio.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My last experience, which was fairly amazing:

------- BRAZIL FROM 1ST TO 31ST OF AUGUST '09 -------

Brazil is my next experience. I'm taking this August (from 1st to 31st) to travel around Brazil as a backpacker. Sounds good, isn't it?
I'm alone by now in this but opened to anyone who wants to join me, though.

My trip plan in August (obviously orientative):
- São Paulo 1-2
- Paraty 2-4
- Rio de Janeiro 4-8
- Porto Seguro 9-10
- Salvador 11-12
- Lençois (Chapada Diamantina) 12-16
- Salvador 16-20
- Belo Horizonte-Ouro Preto 20-24
- Iguaçu 24-27
- São Paulo 28-31

Interests

Mis intereses son sencillos: leer y escribir, comer y beber, viajar y fotografíar...

Por cierto, mis fotos en Flickr...;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I have never liked these charts, but I've also figured out that might be useful to make an idea of that person you're meeting... well, this can be a hint but doesn't mean you get to know the person behind those tastes, and you know the unique way to get to know someone! Let's do it!

Talking about cinema, who doesn't like authors like the hilarious Woody Allen, the eccenctric but personal David Lynch, the surrealistic movies of José Luis Cuerda or Terry Gilliam, the social cinema from Argentina (Adolfo Aristaráin, Federico Luppi), the well-built characters of Almodóvar, and also the great classics, the experimental early cinema's works...? Yes, cinema is an exchange vehicle for people`s feelings, thoughts... as books are, massive and personal stories and views. Well, a reflex of how the human being loves to share and interact with others, show their feelings expecting others', making bigger one's world, making smaller human world. And that's it, I don't know what I was talking about...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ta... creio que entre as coisas mais interesantes que eu fiz estão o ano Erasmus em Roma e a viagem sozinho pelo Brasil, duas experiências com as que eu aprendi muito, agora toca esperar, ou melhor, procurar, a próxima.
