In the other hand...

From my vision as an academic professional in the area of social communication, I have always been a person interested in human  behavior. I read about it daily and in my free time I write chronicles and real life stories. Also I like playing Scrabble and Sudoku,  enjoy creating utilitarian items using a sewing machine, connect with nature and some more.

My life, my creed

Eat healthy, exercise daily, have a sense of humor and love yourself a lot. Only then will you be able to care for and love others...
