About Me

CURRENT MISSION

As Rainer Maria Rieke puts it, in "Letters to a young poet", 1903:

"[...] have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer."

ABOUT ME

I'm a Spanish girl, finishing my Master's Degree in Research Methods in Psychology. For my dissertation, I'd like to research about the Camino pilgrimage. I walked last year from León to Santiago, and then Finisterre and Muxía and it was an amazing experience. This time I'll do it from St. Jean Pied-de-Port and taking notes/doing surveys as I go!

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason.
