ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet, curious person. I like taking risks. always looking for new experiencies. I know everyone says the following but I really like to meet people of all sort of places, cultures, ages, etc. I just want to travel to different places, meet the local people, drink what they drink, eat what they eat and maybe learn a little something from it.

PHILOSOPHY

"A man needs to travel by his own means not by stories, images, books or TV. By his own, with his eyes and feet in order to understand what it and he really is. To somedays plant his own trees and give them some value. To know the cold. to enjoy the heat. To feel the distance and lack of shelter. To be well under his own roof. A man needs to travel to places he doesn't know to break this arrogance that causes us to see the world as we imagine it and not simply as it is or may be, that makes us teachers of what we have never seen, when we should just be learners of what we see..."
