CURRENT MISSION

Trying not to worry to much and enjoy what comes in my path

ABOUT ME

I'm a young teacher in History. As a historian i'm really passionated about history, espacially in old cultures in Europe and around the Mediterranean and also in Mayan and other Mexican cultures. I love travelling and I try to make at least one big journey every year. Apart from that, I'm really open minded, social, solidar, ... for that reason I love to meet new people when I'm traveling.
More about me if I learn to know you!
I`ve a lot of respect for other cultures and religions and I'm concerned about climate change.

PHILOSOPHY

Too difficult to say in a few words. I'm broad minded and open for a lot of ideas. I like to learn rom other people and cultures. I'm quiet social and hate it when people are selffish and judge each other.
Be critical!
This is our decision to life fast and die young. We have the vision, now lets have some fun.
