CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to make people know about real mexico and not the stereotypical Mexico!!

ABOUT ME

My name is Ricardo Ledesma, I am a simple open-minded person who really enjoys listening to music( rock, alternative, electronica a little bit of jazz), traveling, learning, and teaching. I like to enjoy and do the best I can everything I do ( from indoor activities to outdoor activities ) putting all that I can put, giving all that I can give and doing it the best way i can.
I consider myself as polite, easygoing,smart and clean; I want to think I also have a nice sense of humor but I might say it's just a little bit twisted sometimes (I am mexican so...) :D
I enjoy meeting new people and learning about their culture and the way they percieve the world.
I also like to party as much as I can or want although I would never say I am a party animal... I can be when everything is in its right place.

I don't know what else to say! I am new at this but eventually I think I'll write more.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy every moment of life! Don't be afraid and just love. Do it the best way you can, that's enough!
