About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm on my first trip around the world. Can you help me out? Any suggestions?

ABOUT ME

I come from a small little country in western Europe, Portugal. This was the country that, in the 15th century, mapped all of the African continent, and a big part of Asia: India, Thailand, Japan, Indonesia..., as well as Brazil. A little country of courageous people that where not afraid to board small wooden ships and make way through the ocean at a time when you didn't know what was on the other side.
I've been a boy scout since I was 10. It gave me some background on surviving skills, autonomy and responsibility. It also helped me open my eyes, body and soul for whatever is out there to be discovered, to be seen, to be touched, to be tasted, to be smelled, to be heard and to be loved.
I'm a nice guy and easy-talking, I'm able to speak of almost every subjects, but I'm also a very good listener.
I'm a good friends friend.

PHILOSOPHY

One shouldn't live to work, one should work for living.
First, people waste their health to make money, and then they spend the money to get back their health.
If one has two ears and just one mouth, that mean one should listen more and speak less.
