About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My best resumé are my friends :) they are nice and interesting people. Although I am not normal -I do not like that way of being described, I do not want normal things happening-, I am not weird either. I love life and travelling. Good conversation. Don't like to be in the comfort zone. Interested in arts, philosophy, History. I like music and writing and reading and meeting new people, because I have learnt that world is full of interesting and nice people, many of them with quite a intersting life. I am a partygoer, too. I do not know, I have many layers, I guess. And I have sense of humour, of course.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is changing but I guess I like to enjoy life. Not simply in an epicurean way, but trying to find the best things of the circumstances and not letting life to happen, but trying to take the initiative.

Interests

I am continously going forward. I do not like to stay. To stay in the same place, to stay the same person, to stay in the same job. I like the idea of thinking that my life is open to adventures. I spend my time working, thinking of trips in the future, travelling, writing, reading, going to the movies, to the theatre, to gigs, listening to music, drinking, dancing, going out with friends... I am pretty good on my own and pretty good with people. I like to create deep relationships with friends and people around me.

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow. Many of them. I LOVE books, movies and music.

Books: Dickens, Dostoievsky, Cervantes, Homer, Ian McEwan, Julian Barnes, Emmanuel Carrere, Chesterton, Tolkien, Tolstoi, Stendhal, Zadie Smith, Flaubert... Sooo many.

Movies: The Quiet Man (almost all John Ford, in fact), The Godfather, Scorsese (Taxi Driver, Godfellas, The Wolf of Wall Street...), David Fincher (Seven, Fight Club, The Social Network), and great documentaries, Fritz Lang, Tarantino, some Coen's movies, Dancing in the dark, some Almodovar's movies, and artsy too... but I am also able to enjoy with good blockbusters.

Music: The Who, Beatles, U2, Queen, Spanish songwriters, and many contemporary music: Arcade Fire, Beach House, Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, Sharon Van Etten, St. Vincent, Future Islands, The National... I have been to SXSW in Asutin last two years, great music festival.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camino de Santiago. A walking of 780 kms in 32 days. July 2015. An amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

... I do not really know. Literature. Movies. Music. Intellectual knowledge, I guess. I love some sports too although I do not practice them continuously.
