About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life! Be creative! Changing life! Play music and football! Travel more!
Pursuing my dream!

ABOUT ME

I'm a regular person with funny curly hair.
I like music and love football!
I travel for football reasons - courses and matches, and I end up meeting a lot of people.
I've got back to a regular and common office life, but I haven't gave up on pursuing my dream of becoming a Professional Football coach! \o/ Hoorray!
I am still looking for a chance to follow my dream - working w/ Football.

I'm a friendly person, really easy-going and positive!
I like water - rivers, lakes, waterfalls, swimming pools, fountains... anything with water I like, I enjoy swim - it's a time to get calm and totally relaxed :)
I learn to enjoy running as well, as you can figure out I try to be an active person.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to not be enjoyable!
Everyday is a new day to learn something new!
Trying to get this... I'm really trying.
I've realized also that life is short for us keeping doing thing we don't like it... so I'm definitely trying to achieve a dream/desire/will to become a football coach.! :)

I think everybody has something special to teach or share with the world and we can find this meeting people...
I was quite shy, but I find out that I was really not being me, I'm through a lot of changes in these last year - new ideas and facing the world from a different perspective.
