Yumping.- Have you practiced any extreme sports?

If extreme sport is understood as an activity that entails physical risk, practiced mostly outdoors and that gives you a shot of adrenaline... well yes. I have worked as a film specialist for 8 years.

I would love to try mountaineering.

And.- Which one would you never dare to do?
I.M.-
Go feed the sharks, for example (laughs).

Y.- Do you dedicate your free time to any hobbies?
I.M.-
Yes, like everyone else, I also need to disconnect from time to time, so I have several. Play sports, read, draw, do things in the garden...
