1.- If you had to give a book as a gift, what would it be?
Anna Karenina, by Leon Tolstoy. I think it's a great book to give to a wide variety of people. Besides, it is very long, which is an advantage, because you have to dedicate a lot of time to it. People go too fast and what better than to calm down with a good read.

2.- Any hobbies?
Quite a few. I have to keep everything tidy and, at the same time, some things untidy. Too much order bothers me as much as too much disorder.

3.- What is the most rewarding part of your day to day?
Discussing with students some news or books I have read and seeing their response. I like to incite curiosity.

4.- What would you have been if you had not been a university professor and researcher?
Adventurer. I love to travel and learn about different cultures.

5.- Which have been your best years?
2023.

6.- Do you have any fears?
At times I have vertigo, a fear of very large geographical imbalances.

7.- Your favorite song?
It depends on the moment. Sometimes listening to Mozart is wonderful, but also listening to Cold Play or Kravitz's hard rock.

8.- What surprised you most when you arrived at the University of Navarra?
The human quality of the people, the honesty and the naturalness.

9.- With which historical figure would you have a coffee?
With Konrad Adenauer. I think he is a spectacular person.

10.- Who do you nominate?
Carmen Basanta, director of Areté, a association that I helped to create.
