Rafael Nadal Parrera is a tennis player. Actually he is the second best player in the world. He is born in Manacor in Spain the third of July 1986. He won his first championship when he was 8 years old. He began as a professional in 2001. At his first participation at Roland Garros he won against Roger Federer, considered the best player in the whole history of tennis, and won the Championship! Since that date until the 22nd of May in 2007, Nadal has shown himself unbeaten on clay court: 81 victories. He is known as The King of Clay! Actually now he is 3 time French Open Champion. Lots of people think he is too savage, as for me I think that Rafael Nadal is amazing, courageous, determinated, ambitious… In addition he is very atractive!

If you win or lose the çost important is to be with your team, that’s the beauty of volley.My mother was a volley ball player so she transmited her passion to me and we share it!

I have a part of my family in Kenya. I only went there when I was 12 years old. I went there with my parents and most of the time we were visinting. We stayed for a time in Mombassa, we went to Mamba Village, it’s kind of a crocodil farm. After my parents took me to Nairobi, we saw the market, girafe centre, the ophanage of elephants… One week later we spent some time in a lodge that was our departure point to a safari! It was awesome! I saw lions, cheetahs, buffalos…It was one of the best holidays of my life!

Chateau de Chambord

The Castle of Chambord is the bigest castle of la Vallée de la Loire. It was bild for the simply reason that the king François Ier wished to be close to his lover la Comtess de Thoury. Its characteristic are his doucle helix stairs placed in the heart of the edifice; a Leonardo da Vinci’s work.
I’m fond of history, I often imagine how it could have been at the time. Chambord is terrific, i visited most of the Castles in la Vallée de la Loire my favorite remains Chenonceau. Even though Chambord is not the one I prefer I recommend its visit.

I lived in Melbourne for two years in a half. it was the most brillant experience of my life and what i wish the most is to go back there for living. The weather is great, the people are nice and you don’t need to change country to discover a new landscape: beaches, the glamour of Surfers Paradise, action-packed theme parks and wildlife sanctuaries, championship golf courses, Great Barrier Reef, Australia’s Tropical Rainforests and accessible Outback…. I recomended people to go there they will definetly enjoy themselves. It completly changed my life in a positive way.
