ABOUT ME
Chasing dreams where travelling and working for wildlife conservation are the main subjects.
I worked as forest fireman during seven years in Galicia (NW of Spain) See more here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhdWN2yZV9I and here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWu5l85k1vQ.
Life is unpredictable and sent me to Namibia where I am working on a cheetah population study. I will hopefully be there until at least 2018.
