ABOUT ME

Ok, here is a fun fact about me:
My full name is JOE, WALTER, MANUEL, ALEXANDER (first names) GOMEZ-VALDES (May look like two last names but is only one) IBARGUEN (In latin America we use both our dad's and mom's last name) All of this was a crazy idea from my dad (My mom wanted to name me just Oscar). None of those names is me, I am all of those names and more. I think my name suits me very well as somebody multifacetic, variable, random non static, non defined and contradictory.

Im always changing, but I like to keep some stuff unchanged, as being humble, respectful, curious and easy going, just as my dad thought me. I am ambivalent, I can be shy but also outgoing, brave and a coward, lazy and hard worker, coherent and a complete non sense (...must of the time nonsense)

I am a dive instructor because I love teching people how to do it and the feeling of beeing underwater with creatures that came out of the wildest imagination is one of the best feelings in in the world to me.
