About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be happy

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy with great dreams and expectations. I'm also very skeptical about what is always happening all over the news. Wondering most of the time about my future :D
I don't drink alcohol and don't smoke too, but I'm a very social person. Shy at the beggining, but too much talker along the conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Honesty and ethics above all.
