Pablo Balibrea Albaladejo (1979) holds a degree in Psychology from the University of Murcia. His professional journey began at ASSIDO, an association for people with Down syndrome, where daily values such as effort, dedication, and most importantly, heart, are present.
Pablo’s creativity comes from his roots, and from a young age, he felt the need to transmit, create, and contribute what he always wished to find in the world.
A pioneer at the time, he began a podcast titled “Confesiones de un jugador,” which became very successful and taught him everything you can give and receive in this world.
Overnight, a great adventure connected to music began, with vinyl records as the main stars.
His way of disconnecting is through travel, where he enjoys every moment, dedicating both heart and mind to each place he visits. When he has a destination in mind, his focus and creativity invade his life, bringing that spark of passion that every traveler experiences at the start of a great adventure.
That passion is clearly reflected in these pages, where Pablo has captured, with intelligence, freshness, and emotion, the greatness of a country that leaves no one indifferent.
