I start typing with an overwhelming feeling of defeat. Not because the trip at the end of August to which I am going to refer went badly, but because I think it is almost impossible to translate into text what I experienced. No adjective is sufficient to describe what it really means to experience “Burning […]
The next Volcán will be open to the participation of all Central America and therefore, it becomes a new regional competitive scenario for advertising creativity from Guatemala to Panama. The vision of a Creative Central America, the strengthening of Fecap, the opportunities [...]

“Carpe Diem“, “Oh Captain, my Captain!”, “I don’t want a product of the environment, I want the environment to be a product of me”, “what you do in life, echoes in enternity” and so much more that comes from…. the movies! Influence [...]
