I may tell you that I am a photographer, an architect by profession, a 3D artist and an avid storyteller. But at heart, I am, first and foremost, a simple traveler passing through life; a nomad, an adventurer wandering the world in search of understanding life and existence, trying to make sense of it all. Thirsty for knowledge, I have devoted a significant part of the last 25 years to the art of travelling. Although I was born in Argentina and my roots lie there, I am now a citizen shaped by bits and pieces from thousands of other places.

Having explored 91 countries and countless cities, towns, and villages, each one has left an indelible mark on me, contributing to the person I am today. This process remains ongoing as I continue to traverse the world, always learning, evolving, and incorporating new aspects from my experiences.

Through my journeys, I have come to realise what some can only read in books or others choose to ignore altogether—that, at our core, no matter how different our cultures appear, we all share the same basic needs and instincts. We all experience emotions like joy, sorrow, love, and laughter. It is truly remarkable to discover how similarly we react to these emotions and experiences. Whatever the case, we all seek happiness and avoid suffering.

I have utilised every mode of transportation to navigate the globe, each offering unique insights. I have taken buses, trucks, trains, planes, rickshaws, motorbikes, ferries, boats, canoes, donkeys, horses, elephants and camels. I've embraced them all. However, since 2006, I have chosen the bicycle as my favourite mode of independent transport.

Covering 87,000 km (49,710 miles) thus far, traveling by bicycle has allowed me to connect intimately with the places and people I encounter. This means spending most of my time amidst nature and with locals, forging relationships that are truly unique and have the power to reshape the way I think and define who I am. From cosmopolitan cities to the remotest and harshest corners of the planet, I am out there to face it all, with fascination but also frustration. Engaging with people whose upbringing differs radically from mine has opened my eyes to new perspectives, keeping my heart and mind fresh, open, and alive. It enriches my life and helps me find my own path.

My photographs and stories are a direct consequence of my experiences—I live the stories I tell and photograph. Through them, I seek to portray the human condition, the people, and the environments they inhabit in the most dignifying way. Behind every individual in this world lies intrinsic dignity and humanity, something that binds us all together. It is through this empathetic connection with fellow human beings where my spirit and art thrive.
