About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meeting with diferent people to practice and improve my english

ABOUT ME

I grew up in La Serena, always I went to the same school. My life here was very nice, this city is great..beach, valley, everything is close, the people is relaxed, always I met with my friends. Also I did a lot of trips to the south of Chile, because my family comes from there..In the school time I met my best friends, which I conserved to date. In this time too, I developed my interest for music, especially for playing guitar, also my interest for science, which conditioned the my life. When I finished the school, I went to Santiago (place where I live to date) to study Biochemistry at the University of Chile (I began a dream..becoming scientist! ) and the last year I obtained my title of Biochemist. In this period, more than 9 years, I've met a lot of people, not only science people, people from every area of the knowledge, which has been very valuable for my personal growth...
In the next months..I'm starting to live in Brisbane, Australia. I'm going to do a PhD to continue my scientific formation...:D

PHILOSOPHY

In life, it's better regretting about something that didn´t result, rather than regretting about not doing something
