About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Romantic idealist and indigenist

ABOUT ME

I'm actually a native from Peru, south america; but I have been living in Finland for around a decade. I keep myself useful by working at open air markets, fairs and festivals; offering indean jewerly and handcrafts to the local folk.
In this trade we pretty much travel around the country-side and doing so, I learnt to admire and appreciatee the finno-scandinavia nature and culture.
I'm convinced that accomulated encyclopedic knowledge pales before the wisdom one earns through everyday's live. From the joyful and bitter experiences alike...

*Use the Force, my young padawan*

PHILOSOPHY

*The secret of steel has always carried with it a mystery... You must learn its discipline. For no one, no one in this world can you trust. Not men, not women, not beasts. THIS you can trust*

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the ruins of Machu Picchu city in Cuzco, Peru. Arriving to Finland for the first time in winter 1999.

Teach, Learn, Share

Through my stay in Finland; I had done my fare share of odd jobs. From working with indean folk musicians to chopping and stocking woods, cleaning stables and taking care of the cattle in the countryside. It's a gratifying experience to work with the land and in doing so; I make my labour contribution to sociaty :-) I'm a soldier of fortune who's always a step forward into the frontline.
