Geeks VS Charlatans
I’m sure what I’m about to describe happens in almost every profession; in fact, it’s inherent to our obsession with climbing the productive ladder, sometimes without considering the method used to achieve this.

Onice T Project Proposal
Current Status A real Story It is 8 in the morning on a February day. An incident with a level crossing that occurred just 15 minutes ago threatens to collapse traffic and it is not up to SFM to restore service. A person has just left his private vehicle at one of the workshops on…

And the winner is…
As far as I’m concerned, life is made up of long periods of tedious waiting linked by very brief moments of transition.

Capítulo 6
https://go.ivoox.com/rf/120555216 Nocturnos por Chamartín Hace más de 30 años, allá por los noventa, un grupo de amigos y yo teníamos la manía de salir de casa a hacer fotos a los trenes.
