About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Currently experiencing other cultures and making new friends, trying to be a better person.

ABOUT ME

I like the simple things in life. I practice sports and just enjoy being out there interacting with fellow citizens or people from other places and enjoying their cultures and sharing a bit of my life which is being molded by all those I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

And me, I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for, 'cause it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something, and if you find that moment... it lasts forever...
