About Me

I'M A GYPSY AT HEART!!!!I'm very proud to be Mexican and to represent all its culture and traditions! Viva Mexico!!!My passion in life is Flamenco; I love to dance and have that intimate connection with music (on stage: with the guitarist, the cajonista, the singer and palmeros). Flamenco Es Un Arte!!!!MOTTO IN LIFE: NO TE SALVES!!!! NO TE QUEDES INMOVIL AL BORDE DEL CAMINO NO CONGELES EL JUBILO; NO QUIERAS CON DESGANA NO TE SALVES AHORA NI NUNCA; NO TE SALVES NO TE LLENES DE CALMA NO RESERVES DEL MUNDO SOLO UN RINCON TRANQUILLO NO DEJES CAER LOS PARPADOS PESADOS COMO JUICIOS NO TE QUEDES SIN LABIOS; NO TE DUERMAS SIN SUENOS NO TE PIENSES SIN SANGRE; NO TE JUZGUES SIN TIEMPO ----MARIO BENEDETTI
