About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Life is an experience, so is travelling!
ABOUT ME
I am a free man and I make my own decisions. I saved some money, quit my job, kiss my family and friends goodbye and now, I'm going to do what I always wanted to do: to see the world. I'm going to travel for a while and I don't exactly know what I'm going to do but, hey, that's part of the adventure and I love when there is some action. My plane is going to land in Brisbane on October 15th and I have a one year working-holiday visa. I'll figure out the rest later.
PHILOSOPHY
- Whether you think that you can do something or not, you are right. [Henry Ford]
- We don't have a lot of time on this earth! We weren't meant to spend it this way. Human beings were not meant to sit in little cubicles staring at computer screens all day, filling out useless forms and listening to eight different bosses drone on about about mission statements. [Movie: Office Space]
- It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit. [Harry S Truman]
- Make your life as your dream, and your reality as your dream. [Antoine De Saint Exupéry]
- Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it. [Buddha]
