Atheist, Student

Bio

Hey there! I'm Antonio, a fourth year psychology student from Spain. I thoroughly enjoy reading and studying several topics, ranging from languages and literature to history and philosophy. I first fell in love with books as a kid, when my mother gifted me some of the Harry Potter novels. Growing up, I started to sneak into my father's library, and burning with excitement for the unknown and promises of things yet beyond my grasp, I'd take with me the most abstruse works I could find. I have to admit, more than once I did put them back on the shelf and went back to my games and fantasy books in a bittersweet defeat. With the years, however, things got better, despite of Hegel's best efforts to be placed back on the shelf, and currently I'm mostly focused on learning Japanese and studying Greek philosophy.

I'm passionate about

Well, to add something I didn't already mention in the bio, I'm particularly interested in the study of political systems and their institutions. The ways in which the interactions between such institutions provide an underlying foundation of constraints, and the measure in which said constraints play a role in a country's historical path.
