CURRENT MISSION

learn the arts of living and loving fully.

ABOUT ME

i finally graduated but with no clear path to a desirable ¨career,¨ and at a definative point in my life, i decided to leave all the comforts behind for some time, and plunge into the unknown. so, i´m currently on a grand bicycle tour from my hometown down the pacific coast to mexico and eventually to cuba. i thought this might be a good way to challenge myself, brake down personal barriers, meet good people (and bad), learn to speak better spanish, and ultimately to spend some time on various organic farms, where i hope to learn the arts of raising food and eating it directly from the land. permaculture.

PHILOSOPHY

accept what is. be genuine, humble. ultimately you get what give.
