2025 has been a year of contrasts—intense, emotional, transformative. It began with a heartfelt farewell and ends with my soul wide open after the magical, peaceful family moments we usually share in Escondida. In between, there was laughter under a sky full of fireflies outside Kuala Lumpur with my grandson Mauricio; a spiritual retreat in […]
Talento, tecnología y tolerancia han sido valores protegidos por esta ciudad, que hace años me enseñó esta idea para tener éxito creativo. Austin es tan diferente que ni parece Texas, no por los edificios, la geografía o las franquicias que ahí están, [...]
With about 10 kilos more than last year, Bruce Sterling filled Hall D again with thousands of people who came to listen to his closing of SXSW. Too fine a humor for me or too gringo for a Latino, but the first [...]
