About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Planning a 2 months trip to India, from jan to march 2012

ABOUT ME

I m a male, 32 years old.
don't know what to say, usually prefer listening to people that speaking 'bout myself. this don t mean i don t speak, i m a very "social" person. I left my birth country 3 years ago to live in spain, on a little island in mediteranean sea. I study and play music, I like hanging out with my friends, usually going to little bars with music, or having tapas in local restaurants.

PHILOSOPHY

I think the most important thing in life is Love. I mean, Love is why we exist on earth...and share this Love with the others. Never get angry, Respect to the others, be a good person, and try to do something in order to give the future citizens a better life, an healthier planet. Also i think we tend to forget how fun the life could be, if only ones try to see always the positive and not focus on the negative.
