POST 2: My Life Soundtrack

      Music is a very important element in my life, because it's capable of modifying my state of mind  and leading me to very powerful states of consciousness. Since I was a little kid  I have been  linked to music, because  I played some instruments, and from that moment I began a musical  search. I was always attracted to different musical styles, however, little by little music began to have a  different meaning for me; The lyrics of the songs no longer interested me, and I was only attracted  to the sounds, the clashes of forces, vibrations and sound waves capable of transporting you to  totally unknown and mysterious places, as if it were a magic potion.

  One country I have always wanted to visit is Papua New Guinea. Since I was a child,  I have fantasized about seeing plants like Musa Ingens or Rafflesia arnoldii, which are endemic  to the place.  This culture has always fascinated me, according to a study more than eight hundred fifty  languages ​​have been counted. It is one of the least researched countries, a lot of flora and fauna  hasn't been discovered, that mystery has always captivated me.  This country has many cannibal tribes, which have not been intervened yet  by the terrible forces  of modernity. This set of natural forces and mystery that surrounds this culture is those that  always have caught my attention.  Now that I'm older I think I no longer look at that unspoiled nature romantically, but I think maybe  the cannibals live more intensely than any Western person.
