CURRENT MISSION

On my way to experience the Scandinavian way of life!!

ABOUT ME

Was born at the south of Spain, in Granada but raised in Huelva. Being a teen, we moved to Sevilla where after 3 years -was 17 years old- i became a exchange student in Tawas City, Michigan, where i graduated from High School. That was 98-99. That experience changed my life. After that, spent another 2 years in Sevilla before heading to Madrid. I studied for six years at the capital where i graduated on journalism. Later moved back to Sevilla, looking for a job in Andalucia, my beloved region!!... and finally found it in Cadiz, at the southest point of the iberian peninsula, where i worked for five months before achieving a scholarship to work as an intern in a latin newspaper of Arizona. Back in Spain i moved to Bailen, a small village of Jaen, to work so i could save money for my next adventure abroad, that lived in Whistler, Beautiful British Columbia, Canada, a time and place that allowed me to have a base to visit other amazing destinations such as Oregon, Seattle, Alaska, Quebec, Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Niagara... Lately had been living in the small mediterranean island of Gozo, in Malta, and Last year had an amazing time living in Edinburgh and working in a XIII century Castle. On the present, tasting the Scandinavian culture and way of life in Norway. The experiences i lived in the States, Canada, or Scotland plus my final career trip to Cuba and the Interrail across Europe were probably the best times of my life... and are the reason why i love so much travelling, getting in touch with other cultures and meeting foreigners. I believe everyone should know as many people as they could in this life, cauze almost every single person got something to offer and there's plenty ya can learn from others!!

PHILOSOPHY

Never do anyone what you wouldn't like others do to you (i guess is a little bit related with karma), Carpe Diem and specially Aristotle's doctrine: "the virtuous habit of action is always an intermediate state between the opposed vices of excess and deficiency: too much and too little are always wrong; the right kind of action always lies in the mean".
I do also believe that we live in a progressive decadent society when it comes to moral, ethics and values. Find nice, decent, noble, honest, turstworhty people is getting harder every day, so whenever ya find one of those, work to keep them by your side, cause those will always be your real friends.
I value lots education, manners, civism, loyalty, friendship, integrity, honesty, sharing, solidarity... plus i consider myself old fashioned when it comes to feelings, as i am a very romantic guy... Love to be in love!!
