ABOUT ME
There's a lot to write down right here, isn't it? I've re-read so many times what I had written here and I realize I'm discovering day after day who I am and where I am going. I have no plans but the basics for the future since all I have is TODAY, a beautiful present. I'm a software engineer who enjoys being curious about almost everything but specifically physics, philosophy, art in several ways, and I love nature. I like going out in trips to the mountain, or anywhere far away from cities such as lakes, beaches, parks, canyons, etc....There's nothing like lying on grass looking at the blue sky or the starry night...no thoughts in your head, just feeling, enjoying the sound of silence, if there's such thing. Feel free to know a little bit more about me...I really don't think that a few lines replace the warmth of a nice meal or a good conversation with a beer/cup of coffee.
I settled down in Bariloche from 2015 to 2017 (one of the hidden jewels in the Argentine Patagonia), after two years of living in the States for grad school, and traveling abroad as well. Such experience made me grow like anything in my life...every day was a new learning experience with friends, professors, and with life itself, and I intend to turn that into a lifestyle rather than a specific experience. Right now I live in the Netherlands with my wife and baby daughter. We keep traveling and discovering this world, but as a small family :)
PHILOSOPHY
What goes around, comes around!
Carpe diem!
Taoism!
Live your life in every breath...
