About me

Gender Female

Introduction I like to read and I enjoy writing, listening to good music and watching movies. I like learning new languages but I hate verbs (specially irregular verbs!), and I love dulce de leche ice-cream. I admire beautiful paintings, like `Birds at Topock Marsh' by Chen Chi, the painting in this profile.
Interests I´m interested in many things, for example: books of almost all kinds/ movies / international affairs/ music / languages/ fitness/ writing (specially reviews at Amazon.com, my hobby).
Favorite Movies I specially like good films that end well, but if the film is very good, a bad ending really doesn´t matter. I´m also fond of good documentaries, for example "Fog of war", "Blind spot" and "No direction home". Some of my favorite films are "Good night and good luck", all the H. Potter films (yes, I´m serious!!), "Pride and Prejudice", "City of God", "Boyfriends and Girlfriends" (Eric Rohmer), "Snatch", "Match Point", "Casablanca" and "The last kiss" (the original version by Gabriele Muccino).
Favorite Music I like to hear a little bit of everything, and I don´t feel the need to be consistent. The criteria is simple: what I like. Some examples? Eros Ramazotti, La oreja de Van Gogh, Juanes, Patricia Kaas, Sting, Coldplay, Alejandro Sanz, No doubt, Estopa, La Ley, Mana, Sui Generis, Soda Stereo, Andrea Bocelli, Memphis la Blusera, Shakira, Il Divo, Javier Calamaro, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Aerosmith, etc...
Favorite Books I am what you could call a very eclectic reader, that is fond of both non-fiction and fiction. Some of my favorite books include "The Eyre Affair" by Jasper Fforde, 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' by D. Adams, 'El Hacedor' by Borges, 'Living to Tell the Tale' by García Marquez and "Pride and Prejudice" by Jane Austen. Regarding series, I like J. K. Rowling´s "Harry Potter" series, Eddings´ 'The Belgariad" series, J. D. Robb´s "In death" series, and Nalini Singh´s "Psy-Changeling" and "Guild Hunters" series.
