I used to be born 50 years in the past in Monreal de Campo, a small village in Teruel, Spain. Since I used to be a baby, I’ve labored in beekeeping and agriculture. I’ve all the time been linked to the countryside, to the open air, the place I really feel really free and glad. As a teen, I used to go mountaineering so much round my village to see birds, climb mountains and discover valleys. I studied to turn into an Environmental Agent, and that’s what I’ve been doing for nearly 30 years. Being in touch with nature provides me a sure peace, and I can spend hours observing something, usually studying from the small issues round us. Nature is ruled by fractal buildings, and people by Euclidean geometry. I believe we’re increasingly absorbed by rectangular and sq. shapes and fewer by the fractals that dominate crops, rivers or neurons. Being in touch with nature on a regular basis makes us study to see it higher.
