Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learn from other cultures and from people with different opinions and points of view, try to understand this messy and complicated world and then make the earth a better place!
ABOUT ME
I am a social person, who enjoys to talk and to be with different people. I am curious and interested in literature, music, history, food, religions, politics and how the societies have organized themselves. I love travelling because is a way of knowing different realities and to grow as a person. I also like music, I play guitar and piano.
I believed that any person could make something to make better the place where she/he lives.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in people and I have experienced that people can always surprise you (CS is a good example of that!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
'Torres del Paine' is a National Park located in the south of Chile that it is totally amazing. I have been there 11 days doing a trekking with some friends, enjoying the nature and having a great time.
'Machu Pichu' is an archeological complex near Cuzco, Peru. It is impressive, and you feel the history there, and how people constructions convived once harmoniously with nature.
Cliffs of Moher near Galway, Ireland it is really cool. You have incredible views there, and the sea and the wind give you a sensation of loneliness, and make you think a lot!
I like to go to natural places, mountains, the sea, forest, that are the places that I enjoy more.
