Music, Movies, and Books

I can be really eclectic with music, I lived for some time in West Africa so mandingue music is one of my favourites. I love classical music, Bossa Nova, Steady Rock, and many other genres, very rarely I would enjoy commercial music. I love documentaries and author cinema I am quite open for this, but again not into mainstream cinema.
I think each book has had a different purpose for me. A book that I remember is "Love in Cholera Times" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, which I read when I was travelling in Central America and Colombia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with sea turtles.
