CURRENT MISSION Travel all around the world and be able to understand different cultures; try to experience new things whenever I can. ABOUT ME I'm a friendly and open-minded person, who likes meeting new people and exploring the world. When I go to new places, I love seeing how is the daily life of the locals there, as well as discovering all the little things that the world has to offer. When I travel, I try not to stick only to the typical places (which I also visit), but try to see the little details that are unique and make each place wonderful. I totally love performing as a theater actor; also, I like all kinds of things that make me laugh. Laugh, the medicine for everything :D I worry about a bit of everything: the climate change, protecting the environment, social, economic and cultural rights, freedom, peace... Also, I am a vegetarian. PHILOSOPHY Each day is unique, even if it doesn't seem incredible, it is; we are alive, we are SO lucky of being alive, realise, it won't last for ever, so enjoy every little thing life has to offer. ---- If it has a solution, why worry?; if it has not a solution, why worry? --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSqSkAOwOsM (in Spanish)
