After study Anthropology I've learn how understand other cultures suspending the prejudices and sthereoetypes that in weestern societies we learn.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in humanity es a essential point to understand each other. So that is because i think that visitting other countries and having a conversation with the locals is the best way to learn about live and have a personal growing.
