Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
learn something new every day
ABOUT ME
I am a open minded person, respectful of different opinions and believes. Think a day without smiling or learning something new is a waisted one.
Trough sports and studies I have been able to travel in different parts of the world and known different kinds of people, from which I have learn interesting things.
I love animals (have a golden retriever dog now), enjoy outdoors activities, but also a good film, a good meal (like trying new kinds of food and flavors), a good read, or just listening music or watch rainfall.
I am not an activist, but always try to be conscious of environment, and have the strong believe that every individual can make a difference with small actions.
Strong believer in friendship and love. Convinced on communication as the way to solve differences, therefore I like languages (Spanish is my native language, proficient in English and studying French nowadays. Also able to understand basic Portuguese and Italian).
Not fan of politics, but try to be well informed. Think money is a good tool, but should not be the ultimate goal, specially if it creates differences and injustice among people (as also happens with some religious issues).
PHILOSOPHY
Expand your universe through knowledge and experience. Enrich your life with friendship and love. Take care of you all: body, mind and soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Get to know there´s a way to be part and make a difference in other people´s life, regardless the distance, languages, or origins.
Teach, Learn, Share
Enjoy teaching tennis, but my best reward comes when kids understand victory comes by being as good as you can as a human being, not necessarily on the court.
