About Me:

I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I am a big language-lea​rning enthusiast.
Also a music lover. Former lead guitarist of a metal band. I'm no gifted at it. Actually, quite poor for someone who has been playing for so long (13 years). But quite impressing if you don't know that.

Language Exchange Requests:

I've been studying languages for more than 15 years now, and still counting. Some of the languages I speak I worked it out by myself, and for some others I took lessons, and for some others still trying.
I work with languages (English, Catalan, Dutch and Turkish. Also a little Greek, eventually) at a financial consulting company. Eventually I use to do some Voice Over work.

Interests, Hobbies, etc.:

Foreign languages (especially european).
Guitar playing and singing.
Watching movies.

Favorite Music:

Mostly Heavy Metal (being my favorites Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Judas Priest and old Metallica) and related (Deep Purple, Whitesnake, Led Zeppelin...)​, but also some Rock, Punk and Ska (Ska-P and The Locos, Athena, Deskarats...​). I'm a BIG fan of Spanish rock and metal bands (Mägo de Oz, Barón Rojo, Obús, Avalanch, Platero y Tú, and some more...).
Played in an Iron Maiden tribute band sometime.

Favorite Movies:

Pink Floyd - The Wall
Back to the Future (the whole trilogy)
Siberia
Torrente (the whole trilogy)
El día de la bestia
******* Åmål
Monty Python and The Holy Grail
The Life of Brian

Favorite TV Shows:

The Simpsons
Family Guy
Monty Python's Flying Circus
Cha Cha Cha

Favorite Books:

"A Clockwork Orange"​ by Anthony Burgess
"La invención de Morel" by Adolfo Bioy Casares

Favorite Quotes:

«The are 10 kinds of people: those who know about binary code, and those who don't.»

« Z, 4, Q, another Q..., a third Q... and the Batman symbol. » - Peter Griffin dixit

«If it wasn't for bad luck, I think I wouldn't have no luck at all». - Albert King

«I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white.

We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there's room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.

The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls - has barricaded the world with hate - has goose-steppe​d us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.

The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in man - cries for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say: 'Do not despair.' The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.

Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you and enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate, only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!

Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! In the seventeenth chapter of St Luke, it is written the kingdom of God is within man not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people, have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful - to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.

By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.​ Let us fight for a world of reason - a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us unite!

Hannah, can you hear me? Wherever you are, look up Hannah. The clouds are lifting! The sun is breaking through! We are coming out of the darkness into the light. We are coming into a new world - a kindlier world, where men will rise above their hate, their greed and their brutality. Look up, Hannah! The soul of man has been given wings and at last he is beginning to fly. He is flying into the rainbow - into the light of hope, into the future, the glorious future that belongs to you, to me, and to all of us. Look up, Hannah... look up!».

Charles Chaplin - " The Great Dictator"​.

Ei! Què tal?

No cal que et disculpis per contestar tard. Pots comprovar que jo també trigo bastant. Aquests dies no he tocat gaire l'ordinador i avui tinc feina a tornar missatges XDD

Així que has tocat en grups tribut a Iron Maiden. Interessant!​ Ara mateix estic escoltant Wating Love :)

Jo crec que encara ets jove i els meus germans també. Amb el comentari que vaig fer em referia a quan el meu germà era més jove XD

Encara no he escoltat el nou disc de Metallica. Quan l'escolti ja et diré què m'ha semblat. Però si dius que està bé, procuraré escoltar-lo aviat X3

I bé, esxplica'm coses sobre tu. A què et dediques?

Jo m'he pres aquest any per pensar què fer amb la meva vida. L'any passat vaig començar la universitat i ho vaig deixar per diverses raons. La cosa és que abans de tornar-me a equivocar escollint, prefereixo pensar-me bé què fer. Així doncs vaig decidir no estudiar aquest any i pensar quins estudis vull fer.Últimame​nt he estat pensant en fer alguna cosa relacionada amb el dibuix i la il·lustració​, no sé... I estava treballant en una botiga fins fa un mes i mig. Ara estic sense feina, a veure si en trobo aviat que sempre va ver guanyar alguns diners :P

Espero saber de tu aviat!^^

Petons!

if you will send me an autographed pic, i want one!!! ^_^ haha that way, one day, when i go to argentina, and you are rich and famous, i can say "hey i knew him before all of you!!" (and so i can sell it later hehe)
do you mean your profile pic? its not that bad! ...but it would be better if you were actually playing the guitar...  =]
maybe you could charge, once somebody knows who you are (of course i dont know much about argentinian music you could be a star there for all i know!!)

Hello.
How's it going?
I noticed that you can speak quite a few languages and wonder if you would help me with some :)
