In Sao Paulo

It felt like a hole... exactly in the middle between your heart and your stomach. Whether I thought it was "gastritis", in fact it is sadness. That was my farewell of my family in the Airport El Dorado at Bogota. speechless.

well, anyways... I'm finally here and alive...! :)

My transition officially closed today, since the next Monday I'll be in charge of the program and my new life will start as well. Tomorrow will take place the Piret's farewell party. She is also nostalgic because she's gonna leave Brazil. I remembered my last days as MC, I know exactly what it is. :)

My new life looks fine. I'm in the MC house of AIESEC Brazil. well! Brazil is familiar to me, this is actually my third visit so! I'm trying to get used with the language and its culture once again.

On Tuesday, hopefully I'll be flying to Rotterdam. I'm so excited to know my new team mates and also brainstorming all the ideas we all have to make SSGN bigger...! Great things are coming!

Any ways, enjoy it!!

Él es mi papá

He is my daddy. This weekend was the Father’s Day in Colombia and I spent it with him. Lately, we have been sick, my dad more (and for more days) that me, but he’s getting better.

Let me tell u something about him. My dad is the most amazing man I ever met, persevering, hard working, demanding and funny person. He couldn’t finish his primary studies, so the only professional experience he has is which the life has given to him. He was policeman, bus driver, taxi driver, car´s washer, and now a successful business man. :)

He is also the funniest person from all over the world. You cannot spend time with him without smile and have fun. I think, it is the inheritance that I have from him. :)

I admire him very much, because he has taught me to love what I do, to do what I love and always have fun.

Te quiero papito.

updating

I already started my virtual transition with Piret, the current regional coordinator of the Social Entrepreneurship Program for AIESEC in Latin America, Spain and the United States, (the role that I'm gonna have from 1st of July :)). We've had so many technical challenges but it is going well.

The idea was to fly to Sao Paulo first from 9th of June and to have a physical transition, and then to fly to Rotterdam to meet the entire GN board, in order to do our grupal transition and planning.. at the same time, we'll have the preparation of IC (International Congress of AIESEC) and the SSGN Pre Meeting... thanks!

But, the dutch visa has taken more time that I thought, only after 25th of June I will be able to fly to whatever I gotta go. It has been extremely frustrating to me because I have delayed all the travel stuff, and to stay in my home is gonna make me crazy!

Well... sometimes the only thing you need is to be patient; there are many things you cannot do for your own.

The cool thing is that I've lived nice moments that make me smile and forget what stucked I'm now. :)

my hobby!

March-April 2007

closing an amazing circle and opening a new one...

How do I feel?

Well.. I feel like when I finished my last semester of University, the previous weeks were full of work, defending my thesis, final tasks and, suddenly, I had to stop..!

The day after that, I was in my house with a lot of adrenaline still into my veins and I decided to change my room, to read, to write, to do random activities in order to waste my time and my energy...

The last days at the MC office (as MCVP) were sad and nostalgic.. It was really hard to see my mates packing their things, saying good bye to our space!

The last meeting of the Dream team all together with wine...
The final messages to the ppl of AIESEC in Colombia...
The last newsletters of the area...
were so hard to live, to write and to say....

At the end, I'm here... facing my current reality: One circle has closed! and a new one (excited, unknown, challenging) opens now.

After many reflections of my life, and the new course that the destiny has prepared to me, I have noticed that this year is all about my personal discovery. More reflection (and decision) about my life and its next steps in all aspects. I will have enough time away of my home (again), of my friends, of my past, alone... just my goals, my luggage and my dreams...

Definitely, our lifes are meaningful :)
