CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I´m a fairly easy-going guy who loves learning about people, their minds, their lives and the ultimate question: what makes them do what they do. I´m a writer who has covered politics and economics in a few countries, and I find these topics as interesting in their self-imposed way as in the similarity they have everywhere in the world.
