About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Fly!

ABOUT ME

I'm ambivalent! In fact, that's my new favorite word!

I'm a very happy person :)
I adooore to laugh and laugh.
I'm a very loyal person and passionate about eeeeeeverything.

I like to write and draw, and think, and learn everything I can (I even know how to make candles and Tiffany's lamps and those sort of thing).

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you want to be treated.
(My mommy teaching me to live)

Happiness only real when shared.
(Christopher McCandless)

Oh my soul, do not aspire to immortal life, but exhaust the limits of the possible.
(Píndaro)

There ain't any or more delirious beauty than intelligence.
(Me)

Happiness is beneficial for the body, but it is grief that develops the powers of the mind.
(Proust)

Interests

Sleeping is my favorite sport.

I love to listen music and watch music videos in YouTube.
I'm always thinking, questioning and wondering about everything (even of those stupid things like "how the planets can be orbiting and not fall into the Universe? or maybe we are always floating all around?"
I adore to read and watch movies! but I don't really like watching movies based of books (most of the times)

Cultural Studies and Critic Theories.... kill me with them! I can read and listen everything regarding it. Include Semiotics! which basically involves a lot of cool disciplines like Anthropology, Philosophy, Sociology, Physcology and so on :) So this includes as well a lot of things like learning languages, meeting different people, being aware of cultural differences, social conflicts, shalala

ACNUR, UNICEF: Thumbs up!

Art! Art! Art! Everything that can be called Art (include street art, tattoos, Impressionism and Post-Impressionism in the same pot) You could call it... Melting art pot :P

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everywhere I go when traveling is just mind blowing and amazing to see things from other cultures that I've never seen in mine.

When I went to Marrakech I cried at the Badi Palace cause I read it was all covered in gold but when the religious war began they destroyed everything. I felt very excited of being actually standing in a place where people fough and die for their believes and how that Palace represented such great things like a whole Empire and now its just ruins.

The other place that made me cry was the D'Orsey Museum in Paris. My favorite Museum. I cried with Van Gogh's cause I knew him before, I liked him before, and I knew why he's important in Art History, but seing it with your own eyes gives you a complete different perspective and you understand why all those artist are so famous. I was just amazed of how one person can see what we all see in such a different way. And how they are abel to capture his own personal view and being sooo advance from their time cause no one in the whole world could see reality as they did. I don't know I think I was just shocked of what people is capable of doing.

I think we can find amazing things in everything we do as long as we have good attitude and enjoy what we are doing. Specially when sharing it whith people we love. We just need to look and take care of the small things :)
