And please sorry if I can do not reply all messages or requests on time, I do what I can with internet and my lifetime. Thanks for the understanding!

Live in a creative way, giving the best of our selves, but giving. Perhaps trying to be the best version of yourself.
I think I took some ideas from one of the best books I read ever, just a few moths ago, "Man for Himself: An Inquiry Into the Psychology of Ethics" by Erich Fromm

PHILOSOPHY

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can meet people and giving a hand wherever and whenever I can. A very good way to broke barriers between human beings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

they say that I am a "Pioneer", it means, I have a lot ;)

Interests

I love music, play saxophone and piano, learn languages, meet people with own or authentic life, I love to see good films and read good books, bla, bla, bla, especially those that open my mind and its possibilities to live in a better way.
I like discus about philosophy, politics, art, culture, psychology and, more than before, put it in practice.
