Documentales Sonoros
Este podcast está pensado para las personas como yo, que nuestros ojos ya no nos permiten ver lo que uno desea o le interesa y tienen curiosidad de aprender y conocer, también para aquellas que constantemente están fuera de casa por su trabajo o viajan asiduamente y aquellos que se desplazan en metro, en autobús o en cualquier otro medio porque su trabajo así lo requiere. Todos son Audios de documentales.
Todo mi trabajo está realizado de manera altruista y no busco ninguna compensación, solo la satisfacción de saber que ayudo a otras personas. Un gran abrazo a tod@s.
