About Me

CURRENT MISSION

learn to fly :)

ABOUT ME

I am a raw, impatient/passionate person that goes crazy around Chaos. I like design and organized environments. I can not stand small talk and boring conversations. Got to have something interesting to say. I like to share a laugh, actually laugh a lot! and dance, and be out there and LEARN. Danger is thrilling, love extreme sports, wearing an YSL and knowing that I always feel best with flip flops out, and bare feet on cool sand watching the Sun rise or go to bed. Tired, but willing to keep trying till I get to where I wanna be.

PHILOSOPHY

Gotta believe. KNOW YOURSELF FIRST ;)
