About Me

CURRENT MISSION

La patialegría.

ABOUT ME

Hard question...

PHILOSOPHY

Patialegría que la vida es corta.
Vivir por curiosidad.
No hagas a nadie lo que no quieres que te hagan.
La objetividad es imposible.
Las cosas no son blancas ni negras sino que se mueven en una inmensa gama de grises. No tomo posiciones políticas/morales identificadas con colectivos o ideas estáticas, soy radical en situaciones concretas (y eso).
La música y el baile sanan cualquier cosa.
Soy agnóstica.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pffff, difícil poner aquí todo. En lluvia de ideas: Desde Takeshi Kitano, Michel Gondry y Raymond Depardon, hasta Dr. House y Friends. Desde tambores africanos y casi toda la música de origen negro (salsa, cumbia, jazz, etc.), hasta la ópera. Libros, como la música, según el estado de ánimo, pero sobretodo los que cuentan historias. No mucho los académicos, pero aveces pasan también.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm not sure about "amazing" but I try to have new experiences now and then.
This year, for example, I had some Yagé experiences. They were incredible and I want to know / live further. I don't use drugs and I don't see it like a drug to have fun. I really felt that it was a connection with something beyond my current reality.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share stories about Colombia and my own philosophy / experience.
I can teach Spanish. I know French, Portuguese and a bit of German.
I would like to improve them. I've travelled a lot but there's A LOT to visit still.
I'm learning to play the Colombian gaita used for cumbia music. I can dance and I may not be a good teacher...but I can try. I'm ALWAYS ready to go dancing, it makes me happy.
