CURRENT MISSION

Share ideas, projects and fun time with interesting people around the globe.

ABOUT ME

I'm a happy 31 year old electronics engineer currently working in jet engines. Despite my engineering training I'm heavily attracted to the arts and use any opportunity available to get involved with them. I had the chance to live for 2 years in the US because of work and I loved it! Met really good and interesting people and that opened my eyes to see that there's tons of nice people out there in the world that I should meet! I'm open and eager to know about different ideas and make myself more aware of the richness of human behavior. Also I'm in a quest to give my family and myself the best I can get to make life pleasant and happy so as people say I work hard and party hard. I consider myself a quiet person. Don't get me wrong, if the time to party is out there I use it completely but there's always this idea in the back of my mind that pulls me towards doing something relevant for which I can be remembered. I like a lot museums and spend time exploring new places and meeting people. Well, there's much one can just learn from getting in contact with people and sharing moments in life so I'm opened for it! I do believe that respect is the basis for any good and long lasting relationship between persons so I give respect and demand respect. I encourage you to read my couch requirements description so that you know what can I tolerate and what not. If all things are clear from the beginning there's no misunderstandings and we'll all be happy! Ok, enough of this stuff, if you feel like spending some time in the place I live just let me know; I'll do my best to make your visit as fun and enjoyable as I can. Best! Hugo.

PHILOSOPHY

We're here to enjoy life and make others enjoy it too.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything from classical to pop. The music I listen more often is rock though. Like to read all kinds of stuff. Recently reading about business, psychology, some math exercises and the russian novel classics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm almost afraid to write because I'm sure there's people here that have made incredible stuff but well, if it counts I've jumped from planes, slept in pyramids, hitchhiked around 1100 miles, took sculpture and painting lessons, wrecked motorcycles, been 24 hours continously seeing movies at a film festival, worked overtime without being paid, suffered the flu for 3 weeks and eaten a huge bowl of bananas with sugar and cream... haha.

Teach, Learn, Share

Besides engineering I'm pretty good with managing human resources and energizing people. I'm getting more dancing skills so hopefully in the short term I can share that!
