My passion. Nowadays is more and more common to find people interested in travelling. That is normal as now is cheaper and easier than years ago. I travel it since I was a child, firstly with my parents and now, with whoever I can.
I have gone through lean times throughout in my life, but I always have figured out the way to save some money and fly away.
In my opinion, the places that one person has visited or has lived in are one of their strengths. This makes you be more open-minded, more tolerant and more flexible at the time of work and relate with others.
I have learnt much more than languages living abroad. I have become aware of the weight of cultural differences in dealing with people or working. I have gotten skills, in terms of adaptability and flexibility. I became more patient and comprehensive and all these things have made easier my adaptation to different environments.

My interests
I am something else but my job. Of course, all those things that make me as I am affect the way I work. I enjoy myself learning from everybody around me and living different experiences like the ones I am about to show you.

I could spend a whole day watching tv shows. I donĀ“t know if it is a little insane, but ones I get hooked by a serie, I am lost. I have my preferences, but I am completely flexible and I donĀ“t have problems jumping from a comedy to a tragedy in matter of one day.
If my opinion can help to choose one, here you are my "best of the best".
Tv Shows
Languages
As a traveller I am really interested in how people communicate themselves around the world and how they share their thoughts and emotions. I have to admit I got attracted by the power of the languages late and I already struggle with my English sometimes. Anyway I keep studying and now I can manage myself in four languages; English, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish (my mother tongue). I wish be daring enough and study any other not mediterranean language, but, as they say, who focuses upon everything has, in fact, no focus.
In Dublin the easiest thing is to get in touch with nice Italians and Brazilians. Therefore, I have taken advantage of my time in Ireland knowing new people and learn from them as much as possible.
"Who does not understand a language, lost a part of the world. If a language is not spoken, a culture dies "
I know that, maybe, this can sound kind of unusual but I love geography. Politics maps more than anything. I can spend too many hours looking for places in my huge atlas, figuring out how long can take to travel from one place another place. It is not a hobby but it is something I really enjoy. I have worked with maps and It was difficult to be focus sometimes because I could not help checking out where there was Street View for having a little virtual tour. It is a pitty that the most amazing and unknown places, are still blind for Google. I can not wait for they to sneak in the borders of North Corea and go for a little walk over there.
Geography
Information and
Social Media
I am that kind of people who hate not to know what the others are talking about. I like to understand whay the things are like they are and this fact drag me to check the press and digital news sites more that I would like. I am abroad, but keep up to date with the news from country make me feel more at home. From time to time I pry into news sites from other countries and that helps me to feel I am part of those places.
