Reading, Sport (Tennis and Gym), Travels

I am a believer of the latin motto "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano".

That is why I like to keep my body in shape by practicing sports like Gym and Tennis as well as nourish my natural curiosity by reading of very different topics which more recently have mostly focused on economy, history and geopolitical developments. 

I love to travel worldwide (I made it my work) and meet with different cultures.

I like to try understanding the different dynamics that drive the world in which we are all leaving in the belief that this will contribute to my personal growth making myself a better person.
