Rafael Prieto Carpena

Rafael P. Carpena was born in Elche (Alicante) in April 1976. He has lived in several cities in Alicante, as well as in London and Lisbon. Passionate about reading, astronomy, sport, travel and languages, he has two books to his credit, an autobiographical one (‘En los ojos de mi madre’) and a book for young people about the universe (‘El universo es magia’). Above all his hobbies, we could highlight magic (specifically close-up magic), an art he learned from a very young age and to which he dedicated part of his life professionally. He is currently preparing a book of poetry.
