Barcelona. I will try to follow your advice locally. There is no shortage of social emergencies in southern Europe.

  Is the Catalan Independence still a big topic?

    I'm not sure I can provide an actual measure of how big of a topic it is.

  I'm also from Barcelona, and while I consider myself fortunate and relatively successful, I'm still far from the point you currently are. However, I have experienced doing social projects purely for meaning during few months between opportunities. The most fulfilling one was setting up a mentoring program in high school, where I went through a set of sessions with a small group of ambitious young students. Not technical mentoring, more like practical general life advice delivered in a workshop manner, as if I was an older friend. They all enjoyed it a lot, and to this day, few years later, we still stay in touch and I'm very happy to see how much they have grown since then. From my experience being born here, there is a strong pull from society to conform and stay mediocre. I want to change that, and help those ambitious to create their own path. Unfortunately, working at a startup I don't have time for that currently. But I will definitely get back to something like this once I'm financially independent. If you would like to discuss more, email is in my profile.
