Other fun facts about Jorge:
What do you do when you’re not at Cloudforce?
- I have always enjoyed outdoor activities, but it wasn’t until a couple of months ago that I started to get into them. I love trails, walking next to a river, visiting a lake, and even climbing some (not too elevated) mountains. I think they offer a way to connect with the environment and be grateful for the beauty of our planet.
What is your favorite thing to eat?
- There are many actually! But the top ones are BBQ ribs, pasta, and … beans! I have a special recipe for beans that I can share if you want!
What fictional world (comics, TV, anything) or place would you like to visit?
- I would really like to visit Snow Hill Island in Antarctica and see my favorite animal in the world … emperor penguins.
What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever been given?
- Stay humble but be proud of your achievements; don’t detract from them! And, at the same time, if you have the possibility, always be willing to help others achieve their goals.
What are you reading at this moment?
- I’m not the kind of person who reads books a lot, unfortunately, but listening to good stories and podcasts is something I enjoy the most. I’m currently listening to The Moth, a podcast that talks about the stories and experiences of people in different circumstances. They can be happy, funny, or sad, but always interesting. Highly recommend!
