I still don´t know in witch area from design I would like to work, but until now the one that I like the most is Editorial Design, I enjoy combining compositions and layouts with typography and many other things. That's why for now I have more inclination on get a major on typography, digital publications or maybe art direction. At the beginning, I thought that design would be absolutely intended to be done indoors, but now I real ice that it´s extremely necessary to be in contact with the world, get to know people from different design areas even form other careers, it would be a dream to be able to travel for work, travel is the thing that I like the most and be capable to combine them it would be amazing.   I like money a lot haha, but as a salary  I'm not really interest on get an enormous amount, knowing that this discipline is not very well paid in a lot of places, I'm fine by getting enough for my living expenses because since I would like to wor...

My favorite author is J.R.R Tolkien, he was British born in South Africa, an author, academic, poet and philologist. Since I always liked the movies inspired on his works, I wanted to read the original story, so I found the three books of 'The Lord of the Rings' on my house (my father read it). I don´t remember when I start them but I finished when I was 17, and the first book 'The Fellowship of the Ring' has been my favorite book for years. Ï like Tolkien because I've always liked stories with fantasy and adventures, but all this in a different world, and that's what Tokien made, a whole new world and language to develop his brilliant stories. You all probably heard about The Hobbit, but you can't imagine how many stories he created! Recently I am collecting 'The History of Middle Earth' 13 volumes about different aspects and stories about Middle Earth (The world that tolkien created) and I just have 3 of them, I guess soon my favorite book is goi...

Since I was a child my favorite movie was The Lord of the Rings, as you can see in my previous post  I´m very attracted to medieval, Celtic and mythological things, this movie was like my first approaching in all of those aspects, I watch it when I was around 10 years old, but I knew it unconsciously before that, since my parents really like this movie, and the books, my house had 3 frames of a 1998 calendar ilustrated by John Howe and I always stared at them. Also my mother listen a lot of the movie soundtracks, so I practically grow up with this movie. My favorite character is Sam, Samwise Gamgee, I never get tired of saying that without him Frodo would not be able to do anything. Unlike most people I like long and slow movies, where the plot can develop as I said in a slow way, I don't like movies where are a lot of things happen on the same time and is all smash together in an hour, I like well development character where none of them is there ju...
