I was a chef, a regional manager of a company which sales pillows, I also was rubissh collector for a week!

Teach, Learn, Share
I was a teacher at university about microfinance and I gave trainning to many companies in this area as well.
I had my own photo school in a small cultural centre in my town... So I could reach some.basic photographer skills..
I was also sponsored by many cultural centers, councils and schools to show my pictures and talk to the students about my travels: we learn about geography, history, multiculturalism, etc
Now I work in a book publisher
