Paola, who? | "Introduce Yourself"

My current story began about 3 years ago, when my adventurer side grew exponentially in the first trip of many that were to come ( I hope to tell you all about them soon enough), and that side has not backed off since then, for which I’m grateful. Life lately has been a mix of dedicated months of studying and going on trips whenever I’m free.

I ended up being the one who makes the plans, the one who gets everyone hyped before the travel even starts, because I can’t sit still waiting for the day someone else comes up with something that will excite me enough to jump into it.

So yeah, so far most of these experiences has gone pretty amazing and has given me the chance to meet new people and to introduce friends that otherwise wouldn’t know each other. People’s gratitude after a good day into nature is one of the best feelings I get from this madness I’ve got myself in. 

 Thanks to that lifestyle I’ve been able to develop my skills as a landscape photographer and filmmaker (sort of), skills that help me express myself. I love sharing stories almost as much as I love living them.  

But alright, trips aren’t everything. I’m also an industrial engineering student, it goes with my love for systems that seek perfection, yep, like nature itself. Even tho I know perfection is unreachable. I tend to call myself an ambientalist, the crisis we live due to altering our enviroment  makes me really mad and it’s something I get passionate about, that’s why I chose my career, because it’s one of the ones that has caused the most s**t on earth and I intend to change that, so I work towards it. It may sound senseless to you, but it’s how it is to me.

And that's it for now, I think you can guess pretty well what I'll be writing about around here, so I hope you enjoy this new chapter of me as a storyteller. 

Thanks for sticking till the end, now go and live your own adventures!
