Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel and meet people, experience cultures. Finish my PhD.
ABOUT ME
Studied at Pearson College, an international school (United World Colleges movement) in Canada. Ever since meeting different people and learning about their cultures and experiencing different things has been a must, together with studying one of the things I love the most: the blue world. Compulsive diver!
PHILOSOPHY
"The sea does not belong to despots. Upon its surface men can still exercise unjust laws, fight, tear one another to pieces, and be carried away with terrestrial horrors. But at thirty feet below its level, their reign ceases, their influence is quenched and their power disappears. Ah! sir, live - live in the bossom of the waters! There only is independence! There I recognise no masters. There I am free!"
