About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Change the world or at least make of it a better place to live. Travel around the world, meet people from different cultures and learn different languages.

ABOUT ME

I love art. I only took dance classes as a hobbie (and I love it) but I was a tour guide so I have a really close realtionship with artistic spaces and I would like to explore the curatorial field. I studied sociology because I wanted to change (save if I can) the world, at least in my country, we have a lot of problems and I would like to return faith, hope and happiness to society, but I want to help through the management of art. Now I know it is a very complicated job but I am sure we can change our world together.

I love to read and buy books. I like to write, watch romantic movies and recently I discovered that I love to paint. All my research projects are about art of my city (Tijuana).

I love to meet new people and I have a lot of friends because of that. I think I am a friendly and a good person, I like to help others if I can. I trust so much in people and I never had a bad or sad experience because of it.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be happy every single day doing what I love, then loving what I do. I have the luck to study what I want, work in something I like, doing all the things which makes me happy. I have a family, friends, I feel comfortable with myself and the way I am. And I enjoy everything because of passion I put on it. I think that's the most important thing of my personal philosophy. Do everything with passion.

I would like to share a quote of a famous philosopher:

"Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion." - Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel

And love is so important too, so if you love what you do, you will do it with passion. If you love to somebody, you will be passionate in the relationship because you want to be there.

Interests

As a visitor in other place I would like to be guided by a native of the country or city I'm visiting. I would like to visit the monuments, museums, stores, cafeterias, nature landscapes and streets. But I would like to interact and meet people, because they'll have the knowledge and life experience to show me the place.
