Here is a short video about the biciclown. He has cycled half the world, with only one goal: to make people smile. Very inspirational.
From his website:
The Biciclown
Álvaro Neil, the biciclown, was born in Oviedo (Asturias) elon the 17th July 1967…
…laughing; he cried only when he was slapped. He studied Law and Clown. At first it may seem they are not compatible activities.
He sold his car and left his job at a Notary Office in Madrid to cycle the world and offer clown shows for free to the most humble.
Thus, some people think he is crazy, others think he is an adventurer, and others say nothing and just jail him as he tells in his book ?Miles of Smiles?.
He tickles the world with his bike ?spending? his life, the life others cannot spend.
He does not think of the future, never forgets the past and lives the present, the only verbal useful tense.
