CURRENT MISSION

This is my eighth year abroad, third year in France, and I can't say that I've found my place yet. The globe is enormous. Let's wander through it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a passion for languages. I teach them, especially my mother tongue Spanish, and I learn them - at the moment I'm starting with Portuguese and improving my French. That's one of the things that I enjoy the most about these exchanges, the possibility of talking in many different languages. I also have a guitar, but I suck at it. Maybe you can teach me a couple of songs.
