About Me

What can I say about me? Well here are some adjectives: calm, easygoing, open minded, honest, always looking for adventure :)... Love to meet new people and going on discovery of new places. My passion is aviation since very young. At this moment I work as an engineer (robotics) but I also have a commercial pilot license.
I also have a aviation blog if you are curious to find a little more about myself :):

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one???
Azores Sunrise: After one night of drinks (big festival in the island), instead of going to sleep for a few hours before have to wake up for work, I chose to walk a little and see the sunrise at Faial Island, Azores. After laying down on the rocks for a few minutes while the sun was rising and getting a geiser of ocean air (secret spot that I found :D) I was ready for another day of work! :) It was so awesome that I did it again! :)

Climbing Srd Mountain in Dubrovnik: Short story... Nice coincidences happen and because I am a spontaneous person, in the end I ended next day in Montenegro. I didn't know ANYTHING about the country and all was a beautiful surprise. :)
