One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

34 countries in 9 months, an amazingly intense world wide trip along with a bunch of buddys. The best memories and plenty of couches to go back to!

Teach, Learn, Share

Im all about teaching, being a first degree architecture teacher myself, sharing knowledge is one of the most atractive activities I can imagine. Among the skills ill be able to share within my discipline I specialize in design process (being practical, computer asisted drawing and free hand drawing) and architectural theory.
Besides that, I can play some lovely southamerican guitar songs ill love to share. Also some tips in analogic photography (regular 35mm film, holga, and polaroid).
