Hi, it’s Bastián.

Now:

Currently based in San Sebastian to surf, skate & work.
My latest project is Wildmetrics.

Then:

Refusing to do what everyone else in my home town (Vienna) did, I bought a one-way ticket to Silicon Valley to work for Steli Efti.

After a traditional life in Palo Alto, including Burning Man and a bed in an overcrowded garage, I moved down south to Costa Rica.

A two year world trip changed my perception of life. I became friends with a Nikon FM2, founded a software company called Wild Audience and settled in Barcelona of all cities.

I am really not funny, dance quite embarrassingly, try to surf various boards and recently got into Qigong.

Book: One Christmas holiday I felt frustrated being asked all the time why I am vegan so I wrote a book about it. Here’s the PDF version.

Activism: I spent 2019 with Extinction Rebellion in Barcelona helping set-up the mass mobilization strategy. I also took part in two campaigns, one being COP 2019 in Madrid and the other one being the XR October Rebellion.

You can watch other direct action campaigns I joined against animal cruelty here & here.

I also experimented with not flying in 2020 and took trains instead.

That’s it. Over and out.
