About Me

CURRENT MISSION

self-determination

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from Lima, Peru, though I've lived in USA for about 9 years, mostly studying (undergrad & grad). I love traveling and meeting new people. I'm extremely easy-going and very accommodating. I love good conversation, humor, sarcasm, irony and I'm comfortable in just about any situation (I'm not terribly wild, though, i have to admit).
I'm a rock-climber (mostly boulderer) and typically try to arrange my travels around the sport.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice to others!!

I like to discuss issues but I try to remain non-opinionated. I am not easily offended but always try to be sensitive to other people's feelings.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies and books: Anything that I can learn from, or get a good laugh from.

Music: Anything that is clever, funky, and/or "beautiful". Recently my highest played artists are Iron & WIne, Herbie Hancock, and believe it or not I'm just getting into Pink Floyd. Typically I listen to lots of instrumental music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Double rainbow at burningman 07!

i once accidentally bid on a horse at an auction that I accidentally walked into.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach how to slack-line and maybe some juggling.

Trying to learn how to ride a unicycle and play the banjo (though not necessarily simultaneously).
