About Me

My mission is to visit at least once a year a place I haven´t been before.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

People should travel, especially young people. Wait for a summer and take a backpack and just go. To Asia, Africa, Australia.

Encounter the different cultures and people and when you come back you will see your countries differently. And that is what life should be about.

Get the best experience of your life!

I am a gay man living in capital of Spain, Madrid. Please, contact me only if you are not a homophobic, xenophobic and other phobic types of people. I don't need more hate than I already get from society and the world.

What else ... Oh yeah, I am in love with Grey's Anatomy :D and basically any other TV Show.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!

There are dreamers, and there are realists in this world. You would think the dreamers would find the dreamers, and the realists would find the realists, but more often than not, the opposite is true. You see, the dreamers need the realists to keep them from soaring too close to the sun. And the realists? Well, without the dreamers, they might not ever get off the ground.”

It´s the day you realize I finally have the thing I need to be happy ... and then you FORGET. So then what happens is instead of waking up every morning and shouting "somebody loves me" you start looking around and thinking "what do I want know? What´s the next thing for me to be happy?" So you look and you look and you keep thinking you found it but nothing works and the reason why nothing works is because that hole in your heart you´re trying to fill ... is already filled ... you just forgot. Don´t ever forget, always remember how much you wanted to be loved and how much you are LoVeD. And I think if you can do that, and it isn´t easy, you will stop looking and realize, you already are happy.

There's a reason I said I'd be happy alone. It wasn't 'cause I thought I'd be happy alone. It was because I thought if I loved someone and then it fell apart, I might not make it. It's easier to be alone. Because what if you learn that you need love and then you don't have it? What if you like it and lean on it? What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Losing love is like organ damage. It's like dying. The only difference is death ends. This? It could go on forever.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchiking in Greece - extraordinary experience

Running away from bears - Woods of New Jersey

Sleeping on Times Square - New York City

Just falling in love with Sweden. Can´t help myself, I love it there so much.

Drinking beer in Colonne Milan, Italy on Saturday night at 1 a.m - Who has never done that cannot possibly understand :D

Screaming my lungs out on the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France

Visiting Turkish-Syrian borders in the midst of the attacks on Kobane. Fleeing turkish city Gaziantep at 6.am because of the alleged protests.

Berlin, oh Berlin. I didn't expect the feeling I had when I was walking around the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. It's hard to decribe it. It's a place where you feel sorry for what happened. It has an atmosphere, oh gosh. Too bad so many young people and kids are more often running around, screaming and playing hide and seek. Despite that you would able to walk around for hours and hours. Horrible things happened in Europe and it is just simply sad. It's even sadder that kind of things are still happening.
