About Me

CURRENT MISSION
sembrando caminos* recogiendo horizontes
to be a squirrel

ABOUT ME
I love being a part of this great big beautiful world, i'm fascinated by this universe, I reload myself when I'm in nature and when I learn about it.
I'm spontaneous, in constent construction. I like things without frills, the simple life...
I always smile because when you have good vibes, you'll bring good things!

I graduated veterinary, but I have interest for everything! I studied communication and photography too. I did a lot of little different jobs and worked with disabled adults.

I like helping people, find solutions, drawing, learning and teaching *sharing*, singing in the shower,festivals with friends and goood beer!(a belgian stay belgian forever :-), I love watching the sky and remember how tiny we are but how lucky too :-)
I like to be with open minded friendly people and just change the world by our way ( que viva la utopía! we have to dream to change things!).
I like meeting people and discover their culture, and feel like a cameleon in new environements. I'm always ready for new experiences! I wanna know you, yes, you, dear reader ;-)
I leave with my bag and hit the road towards new adventures, it's a need sometimes since I lived in Venezuela and volunteered there as a elementary teacher when I was 18.
I have interest in arts, workraft and cinema. I always try to fix things and recycle stuff!
I can't live without music, I sing as soon as I can...
I usually let the fate decide, life is tasty and full of surprises
I say what I think and I live by the middle way of life "every virtue is a mean between two extremes, each of which is a vice."
I love making party and sport.
I love food and I like to remember we become what we eat.
I admire people who follow their ideas and way of life. I'd like to find a place and maybe (who knows) build an earth ship (Michael Reynolds) :-)

I can't bear violent people, injustices, and the big multinationals that only care about money (porque nuestros suenos son sus pesadillas?)

so, just one more dreamer on this big-but-small world *-)

*nomad freestyle*

PHILOSOPHY
to be humble 'cause we are made of mud
and to be noble too 'cause we are made of stars
always be there for friends, lets get together and feel alright
everything is an eperience to take, well... mistakes too!
take time to relax and to have fun

life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh incontrollably and never regret anything that makes you smile!
