Bartolomé Saro, the handyman

Bartolomé Saro is one of the small percentage of Spaniards who hope that the epidemic will allow them to get married. It will be his second marriage and, according to him, his last one. He is the first zoologist that I have met whilst doing my interviews and I imagined that his house would be […]

Jesús Barranco. The daring cook

From Almeria, 40-year-old Jesús Barranco is an architect turned businessman. His profile on LinkedIn is an intensive list of masters and postgraduate degrees: from ESADE, from IESE, from the Instituto San Telmo and from the Universidad Camilo José Cela. He met his wife, a Dominican civil engineer, on one of these courses. Today, they are […]

Cecilio Peregrín, Primaflor

A chip off the old block. Cecilio Peregrín (Águilas, 1961) is the fifth of nine children and he is named after his father. In the town of Águilas, in Murcia, the Peregrín clan is well-known and respected. This feeling of family lineage was instilled in him at home and he, likewise, has proudly passed it […]

Joaquín Hidalgo, the friendly conversationalist

Joaquín is a friendly man, a good conversationalist and, as he himself says, with a calm demeaner, but very highly-strung on the inside.

Félix García, The tenacious entrepreneur

Félix García (Barcelona, 1974) is a man with slightly unusual ideas. He studied Economics, but he taught himself to be a biotechnologist, by reading and rereading over a seven year period. He is an indefatigable worker aiming at “making things happen.” His life has been a succession of original projects and disruptive scenes. He decided […]

The horse whisperer

Vicente Puchol (50 years old, Foios, Valencia) finds it very difficult to smile; however, he is an eloquent, enlightening man, a volcano of words.

Nuria Martínez, the crossfitter

I would have never guessed that Nuria Martínez (Madrid, 1976) was a CrossFitter. She has been doing it for over a year now and she admits that, for her, it is more of a mental challenge than a physical one.

Oliver Huesmann, Living in the air

He admits that living with permanent jet lag allows him to eat at any time of the day and that it has even made him lose the feeling of being cold or hot.

Pedro Caparrós, Life measured to the millimetre

Pedro chose a Saturday and the little coastal town of Agua Amarga, in the Natural Park of Cabo de Gata (Almeria), for our appointment.

Alfredo Miralles, a family man

Life is made up of phases, and the phase that Alfredo Miralles (Monforte del Cid, 1973) is living through now is devoted to his children, because he acknowledges that between the ages of 15 and 35 he did nothing but work.

Miguel Sanchis, sport running through his veins

Miguel Sanchis Alcamí, who has recently turned 55, was born in the historical city of Sagunto. He is married and is the father of two teenage daughters that often keep him awake and worried when they arrive home in the small hours.

Juan López

Juan López was born in the same land as the actor and director Paco Rabal, in Águilas (Murcia) in 1967. His family, as did the family of his famous counterpart, came from the country village of Cuesta de Gos.

A self-made woman

Extrovert, lively and a whirlwind. This is the best description of this slight woman. Inma Torregrosa, an erupting volcano. I met up with her in the middle of the campaign and her telephone did not stop ringing.
