One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I climbed Mount Katahadin in Maine, we went hiking and climbing all day long... I did it! It was only about 5200 feet but it was my first time doing something like that and it was a good challenge and fullfilled experience.

To finish my degree in Toursim and a course of Mexican Arqueology and History are two things that make me feel proud.

To see and skii in the Andes Mountains was a great experience as well, the hole vacation in Argentina was my best one so far.

I was on a "Sabritas" TV comercial in Mérida with Armando Manzanero, once we appeared in a US TV commercial promoting The Polar Bear Dip to rise founds for a Ronald McDonald House in Maine, also appeared on a couple magazines for the Secret River Natural Reserve advertisement... it was cool!
