New life

   Since I'm in Calgary I always watch the news to know about if Calgary is a safe place or not, but I haven't found anything and that's good. I came from a country that is now passing through a difficult moment; there are too many problems about insecurity. In Venezuela each seven of ten citizen are victims of insecurity like: robberies, assaults, kidnappings, and murders; the last five to ten  years, I was victim of armed robbery twice, Some friends and acquaintances have been victims of kidnappings and robberies, even a friend was killed a few years ago, by a man who wanted to stole his car; that's one of the reasons that push me to came here looking for a New and safe life.

Extreme Life

What is it about extreme sports? Why they are so addictive? I think that is by the adrenaline. when I was younger like 15 or 18 years old, I used to try all types of extreme sports I can, I practiced Skateboarding, rollerblading and BMX, I wasn't good but i tried, it's nice when you try to do a new trick and you get it that's a good sensation, but it can be very painful, you can fall and hit a lot of, but if you want it you always get up and you keep trying until reach, you have to be careful. other good experience was at the university, I took a rappelling classes, we were taught to do the knots and harnesses and we descended from the fifth floor of a building, the first time when i got the floor my legs were shaking after that i do it again and was better. I think that i am a extreme sports person, of course always taking precautions. I'm hoping that winter arrives and be able to do Snowboarding.
