Juan Antonio, the person

Greetings, gentle reader. Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Juan Antonio Barragan Arias. I am a translator by profession, and an adventurer by nature. I was born in 1964, and lived (mainly) in Mazatlan Mexico ever since. I attended the University of Guadalajara from ??? to ??? and majored in Biology. I have worked with Jacques Cousteau aboard the Calypso, and trained killer whales and dolphins at Seaworld. I am not sure if I hold the world's record, but as you can see I have made probably hundreds of trips between California and Nevada ;-). I have always loved animals, ask any killer whale, and these days I am president of the Amigos de los Animales, and animal shelter in Mazatlan Mexico, which is one of the few in the entire country. Please check me out on the web and you will find nothing negative. By the way, I am not the Juan Antonio Barragan who sings, at least not in public.

Juan, please add a lot more here!!
