Back on the pitch

Back on the pitch - Sydney April 2012

Its nice to be back on the pitch. Back to the sport I loved the most. I remember futbol being my life back in high school and college. This is where I learned about punctuality, discipline and team work. Three things that help me do well with my everyday life now. 

A much needed vacation

Queen Street West - Toronto Canada May 2012

I've been living and working in Australia for more than 5 years now. They say time flies when you're having fun and just like that i realised i haven't taken a decent vacation in 5 years. So here I am in Toronto. A really nice place to visit!

What's a better way to spend my vacation but with my Mom and Sisters. Belle is traveling with her two kids Ariel, Erika and my Mom. Brinna my sister who now lives in Canada already have 4 kids. Three of them I've only met for the first time they are Kaye, Katie, Ben and Karissa.

Yet another sport I got into

At the 40th km mark of my first 80 km Cycling Ride
at M7 Cycleway Sydney NSW

Most of my close friends would tell you I am a sporty kind of guy. As much as i can, i try to do something within the week to keep me fit. I've always liked running and playing active sports like soccer, tennis and basketball but as i grew older my knees started to hurt especially when I run on pavement. 

Because of this i have limited myself from running and tried cycling. I recently started cycling when i got my first road bike last December of 2011. Since then i have been riding 20kms, 40kms up to 80kms. Cycling's been a good alternative to my running, this way i get my cardio fix at the same time it doesn't hurt my knees at all.

One thing I also like about cycling is that i get to see Australia in a different way. I've done a few scenic rides that are exciting and nice to take photos of.
