About Me

CURRENT MISSION: Travel to find myself.

ABOUT ME: I am very interested in offering my time based on projects that are in favor of the environment, the encounter of the human being with himself and nature. I am not looking for my place in the world: my place is the world. I am calm, thoughtful, prone to useful conversation, I like to get to know through dialogue and empathy above all. I love reading, writing and also listening to music or singing. I also have a Podcast on Spotify where I talk about books, literature and life.

PHILOSOPHY "If the doors of perception were clean, everything would appear before man as he really is, infinite." William Blake.
