Christian Ostrosky has been a member since 9 November 2007 and goes by Ostroskyphotos.
Currently in Buenos Aires.
I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1973. I consider myself a traveler even though I am not traveling all the time. I like to enjoy life in every place I am and like to take it as it is: challenging, sometimes pretty, sometimes ugly. I do know I am a fighter...
I studied Geography and I have been working on environmental issues since I was 14 years-old. I also do photography, mostly related to my work as a geographer and educator.
Love the world, love movies, love music and photograp
