What was your first experience with the internet? What year was that?

I think it was in the 90s, I'm not sure exactly the year, it was in my first visit to the public National University, I was visiting it in a kind of guided visit to help us to decide what to study. They showed us 'the internet' and I fell in love.

Where in the world do you like to work?

At home, I love to work in pyjamas, I can't do it often but I really enjoy when I do it. If I could, I'd love to move my house to the beach and I would work from there, well, I'm at Riverside now, it's nice too.
