ABOUT ME

Its hard to talk about oneself! But I am going to try!

My name is Gastón and I'm a 31 years old, Argentinian Psychologist. At the moment i live un Paris to study a máster.

I was born and raised in a little city called Armstrong, and then, when I was 18 years old, I went to Rosario to attend university.

I consider myself as honest, easy-going, respectful, patient and open-minded. I also appreciate these qualities in other people. Meeting new people and places and having different experiences, are very pleasant activities for me! I talk a lot, I enjoy to have conversations about.... whatever!

PHILOSOPHY

"It is never too late to be what you might have been" G. E.

"Le doute est un état mental désagréable, mais la certitude est ridicule"

"The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception."
