About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Feeding my soul and melting with others, to grow better from day to day... (vast program??)

ABOUT ME

I´m a peaceful guy, who like to talk and meet different people with different backgrounds.

Like much more nature than noisy cities, but my curious mind leads me to lots of different places...

PHILOSOPHY

Open your eyes and mind, and listen to the messages of the wind as days go by (personal leitmotiv)
"Fais que ton rêve dévore ta vie afin que ta vie ne dévore pas ton rêve!" (St Ex)
"Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in." (L. Cohen)
