I was born in Argentina but lived 7 years in Brazil. I love the Brazilian culture .. If you are willing to "exchange" and "learn" soon you would feel part of Brazil. A country at first strange, but now, the "stranger" is now my home country. Show less «

That was when I was 10 years old. In fact, after watching a movie with Chuck Norris on TV, my father encouraged me to practice martial arts. Since that age I stopped to play football(soccer) and dedicated myself entirely to Tae Kwon Do. Show less «

For a martial artist I think it's very important to be involved in constant development. Normally you see basic level students develop more than advanced level ones, because they have more motivation. When you start anything it's new of course but for older students, they may think they have nothing new to discover. But this is the wrong attitude, you always have something to learn.This is how I feel, having trained in martial arts for almost 25 years.Maybe one of the most important aspects is the daily hard work. This is something I picked up from my father, training hard, enjoying feeling tired and exhausted. Martial arts training is like therapy for me, and it helps me to get to know myself better.

For me Jackie Chan, is one of the best directors I've ever seen on set. Being with him shooting for a day was awesome. I didn't have any action in my part, I had a small part as a Spanish reporter. It was fun to be directed by Jackie because he also knows some Spanish from his earlier days working in Spain on such movies as "Wheels on Meals"!That day when I finished shooting my scene, the casting director said I needed to leave the set but I didn't want to. I just wanted to stay there and observe what Jackie was doing some more. You never know, but I hope I'll work with him again on a future project. Show less «

Yo creo que todo es bueno para aprender, si mañana me llaman de Big Brother (Gran Hermano), no dudaría en participar. Todo proyecto audiovisual tienes sus pros y sus contras. MyH&V fue una gran experiencia, creo que si participase nuevamente me mostraría de otra manera. No nos olvidemos que personas como Arnold Schwarzenegger comenzaron su carrera artística con este tipo de programas. Show less «
