About Me

CURRENT MISSION

riding a bike around the world work to travel, work harder now to work less in the near future, helping others, traveling, meeting people, places, smells, tastes.

ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet guy who loves music, have a good chat taking a dry wine (the only booze I take sparingly).
I love riding a bike in the mountains, meeting places, the peculiarities, like the sights of the cities, but prefer the side that is known about the lifestyle, people, traditions and places less heralded, where one can breathe same air as the locals, or soon to be a local resident.

PS: I AM A STUDENT OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND USE A TRANSLATOR ON LINE TO HELP ME

PHILOSOPHY

Respect above all, that word will be the key to understanding between peoples, is the magic word. I respect you and respect me, experiencing and sharing experiences. Respecting differences, the love grows in its essence.
