Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today
ABOUT ME
I enjoy the good things in life, which I consider to be the simple ones... like good laughs, friends, wine, outdoors, sunlight, sunshine, etc.
I also enjoy creating inspiring and/or social environments, centered on art, music and/or conversation, and am looking forward to create more of those. Also, I am interested in new models and experiments for a culturally rich and diverse society, sustaining independent culture, and looking at music from a cultural rather than a business perspective.
Over the past years, I have explored and advocated for open approaches related into music, and worked on other topics of culture organization.
PHILOSOPHY
“Life is the art of drawing without an eraser.” John W. Gardner.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
One of the most amazing things I did was spend two months in Scandinavia travelling by boat in a frozen ocean, travelling by train in a snow's storm with -15C.....It has been one of the best experiences.. even though once I didn't have any place to spent one night and I did in Mcdonnalds ha!!! Well that's the reason why I have a strong attachment with Scandinavia cultures.
