  • Description

    I was born in a city in the north of Spain called Gijón. Since I was young I was interested in arts, painting, music, cinema. I started playing guitar as a teenager and that marked my life. After developing various projects in my city, I decided to go to Madrid to acquire more experience and grow professionally. Most of my career develops as a musician accompanying different and well-known artists in Spain. Also composing music for television and giving guitar lessons. In all the projects in which I participate there is something that I always try to be present, it is the possibility of developing my creative facet.
    A few years ago I give a turn to my life and opened a cultural bar in the center of Madrid, focused on music, with live performances, exhibits, theater, disc and book presentations, etc. But there is something that moves me, I want to travel, learn new things, know other cultures, and if I can, contribute something wherever I go. So I close my business and I consider the change. I study an ELE course, a teacher of Spanish as a foreign language, to add to my experience and increase my abilities.
    I could also say that I try to be supportive and responsible on a day to day basis, I believe that everything we do, everything we buy, what we eat ... everything influences our environment and we must be aware and responsible for the impact of our actions.

    Nací en una ciudad del norte de España llamada Gijón. Desde pequeño me interesaron las artes, pintura, música, cine. Empecé a tocar la guitarra de adolescente y eso marcó mi vida. Después de desarrollar diversos proyectos en mi ciudad decidí irme a Madrid para adquirir más experiencia y crecer profesionalmente. La mayor parte de mi carrera se desarrolla como músico acompañando a diferentes y conocidos artistas en España. También componiendo música para televisión y dando clases de guitarra. En todos los proyectos en los que participo hay algo que siempre procuro que esté presente, y es la posibilidad de desarrollar mi faceta creativa.
    Hace unos años le doy un giro a mi vida y abro un local en el centro de Madrid, enfocado a la música, con actuaciones en directo, exposiciones, teatro, presentaciones de discos y libros, etc. Pero hay algo que me inquieta, me apetece viajar, aprender cosas nuevas, conocer otras culturas, y si puedo, aportar algo allá donde vaya. Así que cierro mi negocio y me planteo el cambio. Estudio un curso de ELE, profesor de español como lengua extranjera, para añadir a mi experiencia y aumentar mis capacidades.
    Podría añadir que intento ser solidario y responsable en el día a día, creo que cada cosa que hacemos, cada cosa que compramos, lo que comemos.. todo influye en nuestro entorno y debemos ser conscientes y responsables del impacto de nuestras acciones.

  • What else ...

    I could also say that I try to be supportive and responsible on a day to day basis, I believe that everything we do, everything we buy, what we eat ... everything influences our environment and we must be aware and responsible for the impact of our actions.
