About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find a white rabbit, follow it, get the bottle that says "drink me", drink whatever weird cool sh*t is in it... and yes, of course, celebrate my unbirthday.

ABOUT ME

Let me make the short story long... I was born in Argentina in 1982 when a doctor broke the contract that I had with my belly button.
I lived for 18 years.... same old story, I broke some dishes, seasons passed, things happened, some reading, no religion. Life. Then I started my studies in computer science. During that time I also started to practice a Contact Karate style named Kyokushin. After many years, I learned to kick and shout at the same time, to walk and lick a lollipop at the same time, and to write without thinking at the same time.. as you can see now.
In 2007 I finished my studies in Argentina and I got my diver license, not driver... diver, like... "I like colorful fishes" licence.
In 2008, I started my PhD studies in Bolzano, Italy and I dived with sharks... at night.
The sharks decided not to eat me. I really appreciate that.
Then I went to live for some time in USA. Republicans also decided not to eat me... I also appreciate that :) And I had a great time there.

To sum up... or not, I have always enjoyed taking pictures, writing, climbing, and meeting fun people.
Now a days I continue doing the same things: working, training, and jumping from place to place, maybe to escape, just like Qin Shi Huang and his 365 rooms.
