About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Never stop learning from life and people!

ABOUT ME

I have lived in Spain, USA, Kuwait, and literally travelling around Europe in my van for 4 years. At present I work 4-5 months in Madrid and travel the rest of the year ( digital nomad ).

I would say that I am an atypical medical doctor from Spain whose passion is to learn, so... It includes to travel the more the possible! I am also quite envolved in social movements ( well... less in the last years... ) and into long distance sports like Ironman or ultramarathons. Whoever meet me well usually says that I am not a standard person due to my views on why to live, relationships, travels, and many things, but I guess this is not so bad :)

I love cooking , musics of the world, radio... well, and everything related to get new knowledge on whatever!

I love sincerity in all forms, it always help to know in deep people and to follow the best the possible the way to happiness! moreover... is boring to lie :)

PHILOSOPHY

About my life , it is almost all about constantly learning new things without being trapped into routine. The more experiences, the more new options we are able to see and therefore explore!. I try to travel around world only as backpacker to explore the people and history of each place rather than the monuments themselves. Indeed, I moved to Kuwait 3 years ago more due to cultural than economic reasons.

"There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way"
"Do not take life so seriously...anyways you are not going to scape from this"
Learn is the concept of life...
