About me

I was born in Palencia on January 26, 1989. I hold a Law degree from the University of Valladolid and a Master’s degree in International Tax Law from Tilburg University. I worked in this field until November 2025, when I decided to close a professional chapter to devote myself entirely to a project that had been taking shape for some time, at least in my subconscious.

I am a libertarian. I believe in individual rights and freedoms, and I distrust collective rights when, in the name of the 'common good,' they end up dictating how we should live, what we should think, or what is acceptable to say. For me, liberty is not a slogan: it is always responsibility—assuming the consequences of our actions without delegating them to the State or to third-party representatives of totalitarian ideologies or collective identities. As Frédéric Bastiat wrote, 'The State is the great fiction through which everyone endeavors to live at the expense of everyone else.'

The Changing of the Guard (El Cambio de Guardia) was born precisely from that restless spirit during a trip through the West of Ireland, in the Achill Islands. After many miles on the road, with a Bob Dylan song playing, a very special person by my side, and the Atlantic unfolding before us, I stopped for a coffee. It was there, looking out at the ocean, that I made the decision to start this adventure. It was April 2024.

Since then, El Cambio de Guardia has evolved into a blend of podcasts, street interviews, and personal reflections. The channel revolves around individual liberty and tackles subjects such as geopolitics, economics, and law—always through the lens of freedom and personal responsibility. I strive to get out of the studio to travel and, whenever possible, I pack my microphone to record episodes wherever I find myself. Every country, every context, and every conversation eventually filters into the channel's content.

I do not seek to convince or indoctrinate. I do not represent political parties, collectivism, or closed dogmas. I simply listen and ask questions. As George Orwell reminded us, 'Liberty is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.' That is, at its core, the spirit of this project.

In addition to the channel, I write opinion pieces that can be found here on my website.

If you want to follow the countries I visit, the episodes I record, or the reflections that arise along the way, you can do so through my social media.

This is a place to think without permission, to speak plainly, and to remember that liberty begins—and ends—with the individual.
