Social skills and Team work experiences: - Project Cooperation within Black, Blue & Green Integrated infrastructure planning as key to sustainable urban water systems (2BG) explores the possibility for a paradigm shift within urban water systems, a shift that focuses on citizens life quality and long-term functionality of applied management concepts. http://2bg.dk/default.html.

I also learned how to arrive to compromises in order to fulfil common aims. Furthermore to perform my measurements I had to communicate with local people (in Spanish) as most of the time I had to enter within private properties and I needed to acquire local knowledge about water supply, water quality, and social water uses. -I took part of the Erasmus European Program studying at the Technical University of (2005-2006). -I studied languages abroad several times living together with local families: August 1992, English at the International Language Academy in London (UK); July 1993, English & German at the Euro- Institute in Innsbruck (Austria); July 1994 & 1995, English at the City of Bath College in Bath (UK); July 1996, English at the Eastbourne School of English in Eastbourne (UK); January 2007, Spanish at Enforex in Madrid (Spain).
