The reason behind Japan…
“…Traveling to another country was something I decided a long time ago (even before Karate). I was very influenced by my older brother and sister: Hugo and Paula. But my interest was to visit Argentina or somewhere in Europe. Hugo travelled to Denmark and Paula visited Germany (both with cultural volunteer exchange programs).

One week in Hakodate, Hokkaido...


“…It takes from 30 to 45 to walk to the top and now in winter is all covered in snow, a very mystic place.

I took some photos but this is one of the things you have to live… This scenery is one of the best I've ever seeing…”
