ABOUT ME

Its a bit complicated...I've only known me for 29 years! well, I like being with myself, talking, argueing, day dreaming, but not all the time of course! (but when shopping and visiting museums, leave me alone) I guess that I should have to say the usual stuff, I like meeting people, I think I'm outgoing (most of the time), honest, simple, I don't get angry too easlily, but when I am, stay away from me!
I'm a language teacher in Argentina and my dream has always been to see the world. When i was a kid I read about let's say... Rome, and then i was all the time, thinking about it... and seeing pictures and reading aboout people who had seen Rome, made me really jelous! and so i said, maybe i can do that too, i have to find a way to see the world. and i found it. Now, i'll be in Europe until August, and i want to see as many places as possible. When i go to a new city i like observing everything, the places, the people... the streets!

PHILOSOPHY

"just try to be happy"
"do wathever you want!!! "
"sometimes life sucks, deal with it"
"you learn something from everyone, everyday"
"let it be"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can't say something amazing yet. It is too early to look back on my life and find that special thing. Maybe on my 85th birthday I can answer this question. I wonder what my answer will be....
let's say awesome/cool/funny things: Chichen Itza, the colliseum, petting a shark (small), Donald Duck, huge roller costers, Halloween, my first New Year's Eve away from my family, my dad's face when he saw the red light district in Amsterdam...

To do list
1) go skydiving,
2)go snowbording
3) ride a hot air ballon
3) see the pyramids, the easter island, the great wall, the rest of the world and other planets if possible.
