    Two Years Of Publishing Activities

    It has been a while since last time I checked those numbers, so I decided to download the totals from the web and run them through Numbers to make some sense out those tables.

  • Playing With iMovie And A GoPro

    Playing With iMovie And A GoPro

    The other day I went skiing with some friends and I had a chance to use my GoPro in a “serious” way for the first time. I had it strapped to my chest, because I forgot to attach a base on my helmet, so all the recordings were from my point of view, almost as…

  • It Still Seems Like Magic

    It Still Seems Like Magic

    I know this will probably sound as a cheesy post, so be it. Yesterday morning I flew back home for the holidays and since it has been a while since last flight, some of the first-time-flight-amazement got to me! What I always find fascinating it’s the ease with which you can win gravity and cross…

  • My 15 Minutes Of Internet Fame

    My 15 Minutes Of Internet Fame

    It all started very innocently yesterday night when I started going through some old pictures, to see if I could find something interesting to re-edit and share.

  • Two Words On “Rush”

    Two Words On “Rush”

      Yesterday I went to see “Rush”, the new Ron Howard movie about the rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda. First of all, let me start by saying that I don’t have historical memory of the events portrayed in the movie. I wasn’t born yet, so I’ve learned about those facts through videos, articles…

  • Open My Eyes

    Open My Eyes

      Walking down the line, with my eyes never loosing sight of you, my heart is beating for two, I’m speechless and lost, inside your bright universe. It’s a kaleidoscope of emotions, a twist of perfumes, that brings me closer to your beauty, and yet so far from your gentle figure, teared apart by the…
