I would like to thank my girlfriend for her support and understanding during the late night and lengthy writing weekends. Also, I would like to thank my parents and cousin, as without their support and encouragement, I would not be doing what I do today. Last, but not least, I would like to thank everyone that challenged me and help me grow up during my professional career. People like Carlos Carrasco, Alfred Ferrer, Pau Vivancos, Miquel Barceló, David Domingo, Marcel Roorda, Diego Morales, Alberto Chamorro, Teun van Run, Tom van Wietmarschen, Josep Cedó, Joanne Pupo, Jordi Valldaura, Mathieu Sivade, Chris Jakob, Tomas Kustrzynski, Bartłomiej Żarnowski, Radosław Holewa and those I have forgotten to mention here.
