About Me

CURRENT MISSION

If you say Why ?, i say WHY NOT !

ABOUT ME
I travel not only for seeing new landscapes but to have new eyes. I consider myself sociable, dynamic person, with many projects .... and passionated. I also try to be coherent and loyal in relation with my ideals.

I have been working as an anthropologist researcher in the National Institute of Mexican Anthropology , as an university professor and as photojournalist. I am currently starting a MBA in Social Anthropology in CIESAS, where i hope to work in social disasters, conflicts and natural ressources in some areas like Mexico and Middle East.

PHILOSOPHY

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.

We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls.
