About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Vivir la vida- Live the life - Vivre la vie

ABOUT ME

Im the result of all the decisions, the good and the bad one's, that I've tooked during my life.

I'm the result of all the lands where i've walked, the places I've drank and the sea where I've have drank their waters.

I'm the result of a mix of all the people I've crossed, all the countries I've lived and all the cities I've walked, so I'm nothing but an unoriginal mixture of all that.

Despite that, we can say that now i'm a student in Political Science, and that it's been one year and a half that I've living and exploring every corner of this wonderful and mysterious city that gives you everything and takes everything. "Paris aprieta, pero no ahorca" (Cortazar)

PHILOSOPHY

AQUI Y AHORA --- ICI ET MAINTENANT

"Me importa un pito que las mujeres tengan los senos como magnolias o como pasas de higo; un cutis de durazno o de papel de lija. Le doy una importancia igual a cero, al hecho de que amanezcan con un aliento afrodisíaco o con un aliento insecticida. Soy perfectamente capaz de soportarles una nariz que sacaría el primer premio en una exposición de zanahorias; ¡pero eso sí! —y en esto soy irreductible— no les perdono, bajo ningún pretexto, que no sepan volar". (Girondo)
