Algo increíble que he hecho

I travelled in 2002 in Northern Ireland, I was hitching and I found myself painting the roof of the guy who picked my up. When I leave, the little daughter of my host who was scared about a foreigner at first didn't wanted to let me go.

I made the Transsiberian train with 3 good friends.

More than 1000km by bicycle around Taiwan.
