About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living more moments that define me and are a pleasure to remember

ABOUT ME

A guy walking the path towards many objetives... enjoying the life that i have left; becoming more genuine; laughing more; closing the gap between what i believe and what i do; appreciating the little gifts of everyday life; valuing people around me without being ruled by their expectations or opinions; freeing myself from all the constant influences that set me on endless chases for unfulfilling things...I believe in a quote by Abe Lincoln "And in the end, it´s not the years in your life that count. It´s the life in your years"

PHILOSOPHY

I´m humble enough to realize I´ve got A LOT to learn, but I also know I have a thing or two to share. My three driving forces are freedom, joy and friends/family.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-When faced with the possibility of buying a flat and renewing my contract for a decent-paid job, i decided to drop everything and hit the road for a year. would do it again in a second...-9,000 miles road trip across the US-Achieved mental peace for a few hours when facing the undescribable Grand Canyon-Mayan ritual in Chichicastenango; peyote ritual with Chaman; jazz and blues festival in New Orleans; interview with revolutionary Zapatistas in Mexico; touched the largest living things on earth, the Sequoia and Tule trees...

Teach, Learn, Share

I love asking questions and learning about all sorts of things.Can teach a few things like swing dancing, cooking a couple of dishes i´ve learned while traveling, and was a language professor, so can help a bit with Spanish or English.Love to share my opinions about life and the world, and i consider myself a damn good listener so no monologues...
