About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living for today, working hard when there's need to, trying to make the most out of life and of all the good moments and possibilities!

ABOUT ME

Open-minded, spontanious, willing to learn and do new stuff! I´m adventurous and I love sports, actually I get mad and restless if I don´t get to do any sports for some days! Sports and music are the best relaxation and meditation for my mind and body, the two things I would never give up.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to live, not just being alive!

Trying to make the best out of every day, meet great persons and places, and trying not to burn any bridges behind me.

My philosophy is trying to take an open-minded approach to everything, trying to get rid of stupid prejudices and trying not to jugde things or persons before really knowing them.

“Solo después de que el último árbol sea cortado, solo después de que el último río sea envenenado, solo después de que el último pez sea apresado, solo entonces sabrá el hombre que el dinero no se puede comer."

RESPECT AND TAKE GOOD CARE OF THE NATURE, IT´S THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING WE HAVE HERE ON EARTH! (alongside with women :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music.. I love it! All kinds of music, for now latin music is really close to my heart, thanks Jaana, Lina and others for making me love salsa too!! :) some of my favourite artists (of other genres) are Jason Mraz, Mando Diao, Gentleman, Asa, Frou Frou, Immortal Technique, John Mayer... the list goes on and on!

I wish I had time to watch more movies.. I like movies of all genres, some of the best I´ve seen: Hotel Rwanda, Juno, Thank You For Smoking, American History X, Eurotrip, Mar Adentro, Last King of Scotland, Phone Booth, El Orfanato, Blood Diamond, The Lion King...

Books.. I especially wish I had more time to read books too! Not a special genre im interested in, any kind of book can be good.

Teach, Learn, Share

To teach.. languages and the sports I´m good at.. hopefully people can learn other things from me too..

I´m willing to learn about everything! For now languages, mostly spanish is on the top of the list, and later portuguese and german too.
