About Me

(Guys! this is not Grinder. I am not gay)

CURRENT MISSION

I like to travel around the world, sometimes just visiting some countries and sometimes living in those countries for a while, no rush though. So far I've been living in Santiago de Chile, Tarragona, Barcelona, Brisbane, Melbourne, Madrid, Rio, Dresden and Berlin. I really would like to live in some other nice countries in Europe (as Poland, Denmark or Italy for example).

ABOUT ME

I've studied Bachelor in Arts in Barcelona for 4 years. The main courses were History, Philosophy, Literature and Art. I would say cinema and literature are my favourites fields.

I'm really curious about languages and even though I am not very fluent in many of them I can survive in some of them. In the same way, I'm curious about other cultures, mainly that's why I feel the need to travel to other countries and connect with other people, that's one of the ideas of this life, be connected with people and nature.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy in this life it's enjoy every moment cause the time run out very fast. I don't need too much money to live, I try to live in a minimalistic way.

The life are just two days, when you born and when you die. So listen the greeks because they were right! greek wisdom :)

Bonus extra:
I am NOT gay (please stop with so many requests with other intentions)
