About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to find interesting people who has stories to tell me

ABOUT ME

I'm a storyteller. I do throught documentary photography, somethimes video, sometimes I remember I used to writte. I love live trhough the stories I find and the characters who open their doors and let me go inside. I spend my whole day researching the net but I'd love do it in person around the world. I have kind of nerd passion for minoritarian lenguages, ice skating, food, visual art and how our brain works.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm always trying to know new people, new things, learning a lot, enjoying the time. I appreciate the friendship and honesty, and the good feelings in people. I'm always willing to help who needs me.
