Being independent today is one of the best risky bet that someone can do; and at the same time the most gratefull. Try to work for friends, neighbors, "neighborhood people" is go out to think and look after a world besides the big corporations! Is also a job face to face with the client, is find a solution together to any problem, is lis allowed to grow without prejudice.
Like a Graphic Designer from the Facultad de Arquitectura, Diseño y Urbanismo (University of Buenos Aires), artisan, street vendor, failed musician (but always on tour!) andd traveller when there is time, i went out to meet with the people both on the street as in front of a blank paper.
I do not make millions, nor need it; be independent is to aspire to be free, a luxury that sometimes seems impossible.
Rey!
