ABOUT ME

I'm Paco, a friendly and adventurous spanish guy who likes meeting new people, making friends and discovering new places. I might be quite shy at the begining, but when i gain some confidence, I am very funny and I enjoy making people laugh. I like listening to people and learn about different aspects of their cultures and way of live. I want to keep opening my mind and traveling and having new adventures allow me to do so.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is to be honest and respect the others. "Never want another person what you don't want to yourself".
