Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
First, find people with who do things in Paris, study russian and japanese, visit new places, climb mountains and swim rivers i dunno....
ABOUT ME
hummmm i dunno what to say. I can say i have been living all my life in a little city of north spain (in the basque country), full of irreductible basque people. I have lived in the summer with my brother in England. i have worked as teacher, in a magazine shop and as waiter. So i'm not afraid of meeting new people, if they're nice of course; if they are not we'll discover it. ;P i dunno what more write; you can ask, it's easier (for me) hihihi
PHILOSOPHY
There is no personal philosophy.
Each day is a new day and you never know what's gonna happen; good or bad. I only plan where i'd go because flight and train's tickets are expensive if you don't take them with time. But if the trip is for more time than a weekend yuhuuu who knows.

and more
and more

- shopping
- traveling
- puzzles
- swimming
- teaching
- beaches
- rivers
- mountains
Music, Movies, and Books
Any kind of movie, music and books if they are enough good to be seen, listen and read.
But i think i can't stay too much time listening rap and techno if they're constantly repeating. (oh no now i live in Paris!!!!!!!!!!, they love techno and Rap)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Interrail. i think it was a very incredible experience. One month in france, belgium and holland without reserving anything. Sleeping in the train, sleeping in the beach, sleeping in friend's house... i think the only place i didn't sleep was in the street. if i have known this site then i'm sure i'd have enjoyed more that adventure. You know it was like at 9:00 decide a place to go and 9:05 take other train to other destination because we didn't want to wait 3 hours to selected train jajajajaja I recommended to all the people who love travel without known destination. ;P
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach:
Spanish: anyone who wants to learn spanish can ask, i have mets different friends from all around the world and I've never had a problem of teaching this language.
Basque: very strange language and not very useful i think. it'd be a surprise if someone asked me to teach this.
Massages: i'm not pro. I can only teach some basics movements; but i think it's enough to like this and start learning it.
Learn:
Everything interesting and new. It doesn't matter if it's very useful or not.
Now i'm learning japanese and russian, it'd be nice some help. I think i can improve my french and english in paris. At least, my french is sure.
