Faz 4 anos que moro em Porto Alegre, e na verdade acho que gosto demais desta cidade… Tenho saudades da minha cidade natal, a Capital da Guatemala, mas também fico triste só de pensar que algum dia terei que deixar Porto Alegre e ir para um outro lugar… Deixo aqui um video com fotos da Bela Porto Alegre…

This photo was taken in Florianopolis, Brazil. I worked with fashion photographer, Brigham Field, for two international magazine editorials, such as Black+White (Australia) and Matador Magazine (Germany). In this photo I appear with international model Roberta Murgo, a 19 years old brazilian girl, who began her career two years ago, appearing two times in the brazilian version of Playboy Magazine.

After appearing in these international magazines, people from Europe and the USA searched the web, wanting to see more of her. The first result from a “Roberta Murgo Google search” is from my Flickr account, followed by my personal photo site called PICS2DIE4.com

Some important and high traffic blogs and FHM Magazine linked directly to Roberta Murgo´s Gallery @ PICS2DIE4.com collapsing my server in one day. Traffic statistics reported 75 hits per second making the site unsurfable… I was amazed, because after one year of life of PICS2DIE4.com , I only had 12,000 visits, and in the last 2 days I almost got 31,000 visits. That´s the power of a pretty face. I had to change some URLs to get my server alive again. By the time I´m writing this post, PICS2DIE4.com got 43,331 visitors. I´m already planning in working again with Roberta, so I hope to have a more powerful server in the future….

A pesar de trabajar con web development desde hace mas o menos 7 años y de ser aficionado a la lectura de varios blogs, me decidí finalmente en crear el mío un poco tarde. Desde hace dos años, que llegué a Brasil, decidí ilustrar mi vida en Brasil, creando el site PICS2DIE4.com, donde colocaba todas las fotos que tomaba de viajes, fiestas, en fin, de mi vida diaria. Actualmente existen mas o menos 3,500 fotos en linea en este site. Da una visita…
En este Blog encontrarán un poco de todo, además de noticias de mi vida, trabajos nuevos, pensamientos, anécdotas, locuras, o algo que me llamo muchísimo la atención y que pensé que valía la pena publicarlo. Espero lo disfruten.
