Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To discover what's the real world we are living.
ABOUT ME
I'm a person who is willing to know everything about our strange world. I think that traveling is the best way to open your mind, to understand why things are so difficult and strange sometimes. I'm willing to meet people from allover the world, sharing our points of view, our cultures, discovering that in the end we are not so different from each other. I think that I'm an easy-going person, and I adapt to different situations without problems. For me traveling is a way of life, you don't discover a country and a culture by going to a five star hotel, in the end you only get nice pictures. If you want to learn new things about a country, you have to try to life like locals do as much as possible, traveling like they do, eating what they eat, and speak with as much people as possible.
PHILOSOPHY
Live every day as if was the last one, and forget your social prejudices when you are experiencing something new... if you open your mind, you will get so many good things, but we always have to be critic with our society, and ask ourselves why things are like this and what can we do to change them.
