Robert

The person that I admire.

Robert Fripp was born on May 16th, 1946 , in England. He began to play the guitar with 11 years old , and is considerate one of the creators of the progressive movement. He is the lead guitar and composer of King Crimson, and is part of many projects on his own and with other musicians. Has been one of the most important inspirations for me at the last time, I listen to King Crimson over 2 years ago, and since that my musical tastes have evolve a lot, and that's the importance of Robert Fripp here, he has made me grow as a musician, an he makes me see the music with other eyes too. But the reason I like him the most is his brilliant guitar technique, and his posture at the stage: the low profile. He is the reason of the King Crimson existence and that makes him a very important figure on the music circle, and it is inspiration for many others important musicians too.
Attached photos of him.

Photograph

Maybe this picture could be normal for any person, or priceless, but for me it is a very important loop with our past. I don't know who took the picture, and it doesn't matter actually, the important it is what shows. The Santiago Subway, or Metro de Santiago, in 1975 one of the most important transport in Santiago sees the light. But, Why it's important that to me? In fact, its not the transport what it cares to me, it is the year when was token, 1975 specifically, the history of the transport, or the history of everything it's what matters to me. I choose the Subway because it's something we use daily, and i love to know the history of it. In conclusion, I am not referring to the photo itself , is the historical importance of each past photo that interests me . the important here is how it was, how was created, when, by who, and all those little clues which aproach me to have been there.

Pets

Very well, I have a pet since 2012, a very cute dog, and it's called Toffy.
It was something like a christmas present, our previous dog died and we were very sad, then, my mother decided to bring a new dog to our house, here it's when Toffy arrives. It's a very unquiet dog, he always want to go out of the house, and starts to bark to the people who pass in front of my house. It loves play with plastic bottles, and go out of home when it have the oportunity. When i'm with it, we play together, it's so funny see it play with the plastic bottles that I throw, or see it running out of the house looking for an adventure, and i feed it every time that i see it. I love my dog, and I hope it stay with me for a long time.
