CURRENT MISSION

To show my city to foreigners: www.facebook.com/FreeWalkingTourMedellin

ABOUT ME

I really like to talk and to listen, and I believe that too much of only one of them is not healthy, I love to do the last two things while walking.

My motivation is to learn everyday about something, that's why i like to meet people, because everyone has some point of view that let you see different angles of things and learn about them.

I lived in Europe for 4 years. I worked, studied, worked again but during all those years I traveled and enjoyed life as hell! Those years abroad let me understand my culture better and I love to share my view about Colombia with travelers so they can get a deeper insight of what this country really is about.

I like to take the life easy to enjoy it. I love music, photography and football, among other things that I challenge you to discover :P
I`m an Electronic engineer who is not a historian just by chance. That`s why I really enjoy to travel in a different way than just sightseeing, because i like to get involved with the places i visit, i like to feel the connection with the past and the people who have made history, all that to try to understand who did that affect my world.

PHILOSOPHY

i believe that you have to deserve the things in the life, so to get something u have to fight for it.
no risk no fun!
one day without learning, a lost day.
