About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Discover, learn and enjoy.
ABOUT ME
I see myself as an open minded person, up for meeting new people and learn from what they offer. Enjoy being with my friends, hang out with a couple of beers/wines (quite possible that they end up been more than just two), nice chats, home-made life philosophy and crazy long nights of dancing to good music.
PHILOSOPHY
Add life to years, not years to life.
Be happy.
Don't get trapped in this system and feel free to do whatever makes you feel good.
SHARE A SMILE & A REAL HUG.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
All 'em different. All 'em good
Interests
LEARNING lenguages, cultures, to cook, to enjoy, how people interact, from Nature, how to get the best from it and how to give back the best to it. To help, to appreciate, to tolerate. To dance, to whistle (cannot do it yet though), to give, to forgive, etc etc etc. And how? By knowing places and people.

Find myself. Know what I want to do with this short-long life. Realising the enormous potential that each of us have to make a little-huge change. Been thankful.

"En definitiva, ¿qué viajar es éste? Dar una vuelta por esta ciudad de Miranda do Douro, por esta catedral, por este sacristán, por este sombrerito y esta oveja y, hecho esto, marcar con una cruz el mapa, echarse de nuevo al camino y decir, como barbero mientras sacude la toalla: "El siguiente".
Viajar debería ser cosa de otro concierto, estar más y andar menos, tal vez incluso debiera instituirse la profesión de viajero sólo para gente de mucha vocación, que mucho se engaña quien piense que sería trabajo de pequeña responsabilidad, cada kilómetro no vale menos de un año de vida".
Saramago, "Viaje a Portugal", 1991.
