CURRENT MISSION

Enjoying my live with a purpose: knowing myself as I get to know my next

ABOUT ME

I’m an engineer by formation, because of that I used to like having everything well planned and organized, but I realized that live takes care of everything and always change our plans. Because of that I create plans A, B, C… and if nothing works I will be happy with my destiny.

I love to travel, to cook, to chill out with friends, a good movie or a book when I'm really relaxed and also like the outdoors, hiking, rivers, waterfalls and warm waters.
I'm passionate about any kind of art, musicals (I’ve watched 7 Cirque de Soleil shows), theatre, and dancing (all the rhythms ) I actually participate of small dance company.

I also love to dance, to travel, food and culinary, modesty aside I am good in the kitchen and flavors and tastes by themselves are an enjoyable experience for me. If you are reading this, please take me to try a local and delicious plate, I also will be content to share a little bit of my culture’s flavor with you.

I realized that better than get to know a place itself it is getting to know stories and the culture of the place through its people. And here I am.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling in an unknown country without a plan, with this experience I could figure out through talking to people and by chance, places that none other traveler could find just reading blogs. Some of these experiences are: dinning having an old bathtube transformed in a live aquarium as a table, discover and try new fruits and vegetables and running in the dark to catch a train because the local police had stopped the road which would take me to the station.
