In my spare time, I pursue my other interests in philosophy and cinema.
I write regularly for the The University of Edinburgh Economics blog. I enjoy non-economic writing too, mostly short stories. Currently, I am writing a book on "The Prisoner", a cult British TV series from the 60s that has been recently remade. Publishers wanted!
Below you will find a crazy mixture of recommended links that combine the classic and the new, bad and good taste. If you have any recommendation please contact me!
