About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Finding my way

ABOUT ME

I am in permanent construction.
But what we finally have... is a good guy (I know that the recommendation comes from right here, LOL). Sometimes I am innocent, sometimes I feel like a wise man who knows everything and/or a super storyteller. I am playful, nostalgic and funny, very humorous... except in the mornings.
I think the world screwed up thousands of years ago when people stopped moving and traveling, when we went from being hunter-gatherers to farmers.
Well, couchsurfing is a good initiative for the next thousands of years... to starting moving again :P

I speak and write in English poorly, especially when I'm tired... in Spanish too. LOL

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is a cocktail of Anarchism, Buddhism, Christianity remains, with a background of rock, blues, bolero, Latin American music, hispanoamerican literature, and with a lot of nostalgic for the future.

Interests

I like so many things: cats, philosophy (phenomenology, hermeneutics, semiotics, psychoanalysis), plants, kung fu -tai chi- Qi kung - http://www.choyleefut.cl/, sports and beer/wine/vodka/ron... drinking and training, both balanced. I like music, clean air, justice, freedom and brotherhood, and the mysteries in general. And travel!! inside and out.

In the last time, I have been interested in the body as a center of gravity, zero point of any guidance, powerful wise, and so on. I am interested in the work of Wilhelm Reich respect to social health.
