About Me

Time for something new here.

I am currently in a state of transition.

I have so many thoughts in my head racing and competing for verbal expression. Instead of spilling them out here, I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

What I will say is that I love my life and have so much to look forward to.

Lots of exciting things happening. More to come later. Stay tuned.

My Interests

Comedy, Dancing, Futbol, Humor, Journalism, Languages, Reading, Movies, Music, Snowboarding, Great Conversations, Traveling, Finding fun places to drink and relax with friends, Food and Restaurants, Learning about different cultures and people, etc

Favorite Teams:

Spain: Real Madrid (Madridista since 1995), Barcelona, Getafe, Real Zaragoza, Villareal
England: Liverpool, Arsenal, Bolton, Newcastle, Wigan, Everton
France: Paris Saint-Germain, Lyon
Germany: Bayern Munich, Dortmund
Portugal: Porto, Benfica
Italy: AC Milan, Inter Milan, Juventus
Mexico: Atlas, Guadalajara, Pumas, Cruz Azul, Atlante

I'd like to meet:

I mostly keep this profile to have a place to list my interests, write about my thoughts, keep up with musicians that I like and keep in touch with friends, but I'm always up for meeting new people.

I'd like to meet someone who loves music, would be stoked about putting together a Sound System, and playing dub, reggae, r&b, soul, drum n' bass and all types of music for people.

If I can't find anyone, someday I'll just do it myself.

If you feel like talking about anything we have in common, feel free to send a message.
