First of all, thanks for visiting.

Really, I appreciate the value of time, so thanks for sharing yours with me.

I am Miguel Mayher, an enthousiastic student of Life.

Since I was kid, I have been constantly intrigued by this human experience of reality.

In my journey, books have been a tremendous source of not just knowledge, but growth. I am a big believer on the value of spending at least 1 hour a day reading.

Given my compulsion to recommend great books when in conversation with people, I decided to take it to the next level and share it online. I find these jewels through others’ suggestions. Some books have changed my life and I know they have changed the lives of others who followed my recommendation.

My purpose at BookVIM is to encourage you to ramp up your reading habit, and share the best insights I have learnt myself. Reading does not have to be burdensome task, you can turn it into a fun-loving experience!. There are more books than we can read in a lifetime, and many aren’t worth your time, so I would like to act as a filter. A pointer if you wish.

Background

If you are wondering about my actual background (hopefully not so you can put me in a box and supposedly better judge me), here are some random facts for you:

    I was born and raised in Madrid (Spain).
    I studied Computer Engineering in Madrid and Paris (France).
    My Post-Graduate degree was in Fine Arts, Oil-painting in London (United Kingdom).
    I’m currently working in a Management Leadership program in Milwaukee, WI (USA).

What I love

I really connect with…

    Learning
    Travelling
    Caring people
    A healthy life-style
    Creating something new

I’d like to think I’m as friendly in the videos as in real life, so feel free to reach out.
