Carlos Moreno
What I Love:
There is nothing like riding your bike to an old town and enjoying it's gastronomy, locals’ products, the charm of the narrow streets, and old castles. To feel a real ancient atmosphere makes me dream for a second that I have gone back in time. To camp in remote places and feel the nature while I sleep under the stars makes me feel alive and enjoy the present. I feel free while I go downhill with my skateboard or snowboard. It is just wonderful.

Freddie Jagger
What I Love:
Adventure! Anything that involves new experiences, making memories or just having a laugh - there is always a reason to smile. A fast paced life is fun and keeps you busy but equally to take things slowly and really see what is around you is just as important, to share those moments with other people makes it all the more rewarding. Also a big lover of music (although you won't want to hear me sing)
