CURRENT MISSION

Get to know myself through others and through experiences in life. Live life to the fullest (hey, you don't get to live so often in a million years!), and help humanity be aware of self-counsciousness.

ABOUT ME

About me?
All I know is "Rodrigo" is my name. The question of "who am I?" shall never be answered with a name. I guess I'll answer that some other space and time, or sometime in the afterlife. Still, I'll tell you what I know I enjoy.

Love adventures and breaking up routines in my life. Traveling, observing, meeting new people that value learning and sharing as part of what common sense dictates of life.

You never know what to encounter or what ideas to experience on your trail... you just take the ride.

When I finished high school, I worked as a waiter, bartender, and educated myself in yoga and meditation. I travelled, travelled, and travelled. Later on I decided to study medicine and currently I'm about to finish the specialty of Neurosurgery.

PHILOSOPHY

Dreams are the way to read life between the lines.

My spiritual belief is LOVE above all, my political stand is Self-Consciousness

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Have been to the Atacama Desert in Chile and climbed some of the many mountains it has in San Pedro :)

Have swam in the cold water of the Baltic sea both in northern Poland and southern Sweden and tried an alive jelly fish in Poland, while swimming next to it (it wasn't that bad, maybe even better with some lime drops and hot sauce)

Have survived a couple of days only with fruits from the forrest, fruits that apparently were "poisonous" (and exquisite).

Have helped people with prosthesis and physical rehabilitation. One morning they come with a long, sad face on a wheelchair, and suddenly after a couple of days/weeks their face is full of joy, a big smile and a strong and firm footstep :)

Have witnessed people being enlightened with hope.

I have had the fortune to cross my path with people that can change the world in a better sense :)

Teach, Learn, Share

Get loose and let yourself drive your life.

hmmm... I can teach spanish and english. Some healthy, not so healthy, scientifical facts or advice.

Within sharing, then I can share a bit of my photography skills, help you out with it and share experiences of my life through photos and memories. I can also share some cooking ideas , and cook as well (Ok I am not a cook, but I dare to make simple stuff that so far everyone has liked), some knowledge and practice within health, yoga and why not some philosophy and other loads of fun...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Medical advice, healthy habits, spanish, take the dog for a ride, cooking, some mixology, curious conversations and a couple of laughs.
