About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to leave a footprint in the world !!

ABOUT ME

It is very hard for me to put into words everything that I am....

Only those who have taken the time or the opportunity to get to know me may be able to have a better sense of who I am!

Life have put me in different situations and places. Such circumstances have help me to grow in many ways, and have taught me that I have to fight for what I want, for what I dream of, and to not let anyone tell me that I can't! so.. yeah.. am very persistent!

In short...am a very passionate person, somehow political, easy going, honest, and very Positive! One of my biggest passions is to travel, learn about other cultures, and explore new places.

I enjoy meeting new people and exchanging ideas and ideals! I am very open and am always willing to listen, and to be there for my friends!

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life to the fullest, every experience, good or bad, contributes to my personal growth and shapes my life!

Learn, Learn, and don't get tired of it!

Am a Dreamer!
