About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to live my life to it's fullest.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 24 years old mexican guy who loves eating, reading and playing fútbol!. I consider myself a quiet and responsible guy.....maybe too quiet sometimes. I get along well with other people, i guess that's because i truly respect the beliefs of others even tough i do not share them. I love making friends.

Currently living in La Crosse, WI.

PHILOSOPHY

To make this world a better place to live we have to be useful. Simply as that,.... be useful to yourself, to others, to the entire society.. and we will have a better world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing i've done is the construction of 4 houses that were given to people who live in extreme poverty. Those houses were part of a programa directed by TECHO (http://www.techo.org/) a great organization whose mission is work tirelessly to overcome extreme poverty in slums, through training and joint action of families and youth volunteers.

Also, backpacking by myself for 2 months in Europe was incredible. Had the chance to meet a lot of people!
