Judo, walking, Volunteering in reforestation and beach cleaning, drawing, movie theater

Judo is an unarmed modern japanese martial art. The meaning of Ju-do is "gentle way" or "the way of nobility". It takes years of difficult training and hard exercise!

Walking: I try at list 4 times a week to walk 8 kilometers just for an additional stamina

Volunteering: From time to time i try to participate in reforestation in areas that have been affected by the fires. I think is the minimum that we can do just to give a new birth to the environment! Also during summer i find cleaning beaches that sets a good example for our children! 

Drawing: Some times i draw portraits or marvel-dc comics just for fun

Movie theater: My favorite hobbie


Additional Information

My main characteristic is directness and finding solutions to unusual situations.

I try to speak real truth and not hiding through manager meetings just to postpone the problem for the next time!

I try to work always with my collaborators not only during the working hours but whenever they need me!
