Interests

I'm interested in anything that arouses emotions and the spirituality of a person.

It can be photography, losing myself in philosophical thoughts of astronomy, looking at a painting and dreaming the events that's depicted on it, listening to old vinylies that I collect, playing piano while letting me and the piano's soul merge together to get away to new worlds, hearing the wind on top of a mountain or in a beach to sense the dimension of time...

In a networking event, we were asked to write words that define us without thinking, and show our words to other people that we’ll meet and greet. Here were my words: Photography, astronomy, storytelling, writing.

Though, I also have a hunger to learn history, cultures, languages, do audiovisual contents, documentaries.

My mind often dreams and loses connection to reality in the day time, in search of a ‘thing’ that will get me inspired. Then, I use that inspiration to develop creative work on the thing I’m working on.
