kiss kiss bang bang

don't get me wrong... title of the post only refers to a not-so-recent movie i watched recent and which i really liked. it's directed by shane black and it stars robert downey jr. and michelle monaghan (whom i had not seen in a movie before and by which, i have to admit, i was very impressed). for further info for those of you who feel like a spin around the imdb world: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373469/

turning to another matter, apologies for not dropping by sooner. always making promises about posting more frequently... and even now that I have all (well... not really all... but a lot) time in my hands, i still manage to fail miserably. the last few weeks have been quite hectic... after i quit my job, i still had a few... actually a bunch of things to take care of in london. i finally moved out last week and brought all my stuff back to madrid, where i am hoping to spend a few weeks, resting up with my family and friends. well... turns out that after only two days in town i headed to the alps for some insane skiing action. spent thursday to sunday in st anton (austria) and had an amazing time! thanks to nacho, andres, sof, kike, maria and all the gang for the great skiing, fun times and huuuuge apres ski... would have never thought that skiing 400m down a hill in a not so "sober" state would have been such a crazy idea. who would have thought right? lol. I leave you with a few pics from the trip (one of which is stolen... thanks maria!) so you can get a feel for the experience. particularly fond memories of the great car we managed to rent. surely will still befull of pringles, peanuts and that infamous austrian salami we bought.

and now what??? a couple more days in madrid and off to the US for the chicago booth admit weekend. will be in the US for about a week as i am also due to swing by boston. very much looking forward to that. can't wait actually. will share my impressions when i am on the ground. important step as i am likely to spend the next 2 years (from september) there! exciting indeed!!

what comes next is a surprise so stay tuned...
