About Me

The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen.

No one is perfect and for me travelling is like an addiction;) never get enough, always need more, want to go further to see, feel, hear, smell and know cultures, landscapes, languages, sounds, colours, odours and above all people. When traveling, I am often involved as a volunteer for small local communities, most often working with children (Ecuador, Cameroon, Rwanda, Democratic Republic of Congo)
