ABOUT ME
I was born in Taranto (South of Italy) in August of 1981 . Son of a spanish mother and an italian father I came to Mallorca when I was 5 years old, place where I grew up and formed as a not normal person.
I think I'm a very happy person and very active and I like to make people around me.
I lived allways in Mediterranean sea, Mallorca, Ibiza, Barcelona and Valencia, they are great but now Im looking for a big change and discover new places. I moved to New Zealand 7 years ago where I am a citizen now
Occupations:
I worked as Entertainer and windsurf and kayak instructor in touristic hotels of Mallorca for six years between my 16 and 25 years.
I worked as a port sailor in Ibiza for 2 years in 2003 and 2004 and then since 2005 left Mallorca in 2011 and lived in New Zealand as a base country for traveling the world since then.
Hobbies:
My most important hobbies are percussion, kayak, running and trecking.
I play flamenco, arab, african, afrolatin and brasilian percussion. I really love it, in the last ten years I meet great people playing.
I really love sports like kayak, running and treckking and I would like to return to climb after 13 years.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to be happy allways and make happy the people around me. Why worry for anything?
