CURRENT MISSION

Travel the World

ABOUT ME

I loove to travel and I intend to visit as many places as I can in this life time. I try to work in few projects while traveling like making a documentary, or taking pictures and videos or practicing/learning language or researching about some subject, woofing or helpx.. basically I like to know more about the place I'm visiting in a deeper perspective than just being a tourist. As my friends say I'm not a tourist, I'm a traveler.
My intention is to make the world a better place and change things that are not right.(really!!??) I'm trying to do that starting with myself: internal personal growth, eating healthy, organic food, avoiding animal products, respecting all living beings and the environment, respecting others and contribute as I can wherever I am. The world is my home.
I love animals and for this reason I avoid eating them. I participate in many projects to protect animals and advocate against animal cruelty.
I currently work as a RN near Orlando/Tampa

PHILOSOPHY

Live a day at a time and do to others what you would like them to do for yourself; Give love with no expectations to receive it back; We are the makers of our destiny so always work hard for your goals; If God gave us wings it is a waste to live inside of a cage.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gaudi's work in Spain impressed me, specially the Casa Batlló: It's really amazing.
The scenery in California. So diverse and beautiful. One of the most beautiful places I've ever been.
New York is lots of fun.
The ocean in Miami is warm and beautiful.
Alaska is a must see place. So grand and exuberant. The mountains in contrast with the ocean and the wildlife impressed me. I will be back!
Brazil has great beauty and great people.
Paris is so charming with great food (No surprise there)
Rome is my favorite city
Santorine is a paradise.
I jumped from 13 thousand feet from a plane with a skydiver (tandem). It is one of the best things I ever done. I need to do it again.
