I looked like this in the picture when ARGIA first offered me the opportunity. A while in the magazine. The only condition is that what is written has to do with sport if it is possible.
It doesn't always make me easy. There are sports, especially those that move a lot of money, that generate a lot of discussion without substance. Nothing but noise. The arguments are softened by deepening the interests behind them, becoming superficial and relativizing the warmth that has been put on these topics.
But sometimes the world of sport, and especially athletes, offer us moments full of magic. Few surfaces and words and actions of sweet meats. Valid.
Talk about Alberto Zerain in the programming of the Flysch Trail of Zumaia. Sebastian Álvaro, Juanjo San Sebastian, Josu Bereziartua, Joxe Ramón Agirre Brown, Johnatan García and other mountain veterans are talking about what the mountains have given them and has taken away the mountains.
Remove, among other things, fingers and toes. And, of course, the friends who have stayed there arriba.Da a lot.
They talk about life and life.
One says that he has taught him that mountains are the same as death and life, naturally, without overdramatizing the two things to take; more than eight thousand meters, when he starts to worry, unlike the camps at the bottom, the gods and the goddesses, who knows where, who says that they are living – I don’t know if it gives me the impression that in my time, but maybe you remember the religions! Forced by bad weather, unable to leave the store for days – and nights –, the importance of the smallest detail, the help that helps you to look in the face of life, and therefore death... The wise teacher said that with few elements whoever knows how to complete the universe, that is, the understanding of life, will be able to look in the void.
The veteran has told you about when he realized that we were at least in cosmic dust, seeing the summit so far away, impossible, and being aware of our smallness. They say it speaks silence.
Every word rubbed by experience with sense oil produces in my brain a spark that would scare the most skilled neuroscience.
The moon surprises us on the beach of Itzurun. The talk has been over for a long time, but the conversation issues and the desire to be with friends, no.
They have stopped talking about death and more important things have emerged. The SOS Himalaya Elkartea Association in the Valley of Nepal has denounced that they need help in order to get a hospital up.

In February 2023, I read the news in the press and I was depressed because it surprised me and gave me what to think. The store of Jostaldi Kirolak Erdikale Street in Azpeitia will be closed to the public after 48 years of running.

Snow hides the earth and the traces of beings looking for pleasure. Under the beauty of snow there is time, years, generations, ephemerides, quotations; but when time goes by there are words that have not been said before or after. Snow reminds us that we could slip and fall. As... [+]
The world has also done so, because it is a symbol, because in history more genocides have already been done and will be done (bad luck, hear, it has touched you to be born there), but Palestine has special characteristics:

They appeared, as usual, through the hut, parked in the center of the passage, in herbs and encharcations so as not to dirty the mills, and went through the road, tracing, to the porch, with a large dish in the hand. As usual, the bûche was ready. In French bûche it can be a... [+]
As the fall ends, the crows appear on Basque Day, in the Basque era or in the Durango Fair. Aware of the results of socio-linguistic surveys on the use of Euskera, the "politically corrective" exercise has no longer drawn anyone's attention. Without Ttattarri, with cool and smiling... [+]
