Hi, it's Michele, pronounced Mikele ! I love to travel and everything that has to do with that. I am extremely adventurous and always looking for new challenges. Preferring crossing land borders instead to fly into countries, stay with locals trough couch-surfing instead of hotels, visit nature places instead of cities, trekking climbing instead of sitting in a bar, eating street food instead of Restaurants, exploring hidden places instead of touristic sites.
PHILOSOPHY
So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence, there is no greater joy than having an endlessly changing horizon for each day to have a new and different sun. Jon Krakauer, Into the Wild
