Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Be a flowing river and not stagnate water.
ABOUT ME
My mouth goes quicker than my brain getting me in odd situations often, so I prefer keeping quite most times, but others say I'm quite a chatterbox.
I'm fascinated with Japan, starting to be curious about Korea (North and South), and I've spent most of my teenage life playing rol, reading science-fiction, manga and spending brilliant times with my friends.
Didn't have TV, nor computer or any electronic gadget at home 'till I was 16 and I've survived ^-^.
Was born in Menorca (lovely island), but spent most of my summers in England or family trips were organized. So I love Spain (my father's side) and England (my mother's side)...they're both my home.
I'm now in Burgos studying "History and Heritage", living a big adventure at uni, realizing how big the world is. There's so many people I wish to meet.
PHILOSOPHY
"I thought how lovely and how strange a river is. A river is a river, always there, and yet the water flowing through it is never the same water and is never still. ItâÃâ¬Ãâ¢s always changing and is always on the move. And over time the river itself changes too...Will the I that is me grow and widen and deepen? Or will I stagnate and become an arid riverbed? Will I allow people to dam me up and confine me to wall so that I flow only where they want? Will I allow them to turn me into a canal to use for they own purposes? Or will I make sure I flow freely, coursing my way through the land and ploughing a valley of my own?âÃâ¬ÃÂ

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Swim with lots of stingrays under my feet or surrounded by jellyfish without being stung.
Watch a meteor shower with my best friends.
Waking up on a ruff in the middle of nowhere.
Teach, Learn, Share
I suppose I can offer my bilingual ability, I enjoy doing Origami (but not so good at it as to teach)-
But I do want to learn lots and lots of everything!
