Overview
About Me
IF YOU WANT TO SING OUT SING OUT
I am a cultural anthropologist, travel lover, feminist and environmentalist.
I work on a project where we support refugees in their professional training, I started in July 2023. Before that, I was working on a project for the rights of homeless people, we made interviews, events and even established a union! Before that I was traveling for a while and before that I did my studies and fieldwork as a cultural anthropologist.
I love genuine human connections and good conversations.
I'm a big fan of human beings.
I like cycling, especially with free hands.
I love hiking.
Amo Latinoamerica.
I'm into drawing and and watercolors and I'm trying to get better at it, in order to express myself and create beauty through art. If you can teach me something or give me tips I'd be very thankful.
Good Indian food makes me happy.
I like if you are passionate of something, whatever it is, even if it does not interest me as a subject, I will still like the light in your eyes when you talk about it.
🔴 HOSTING 🔴
🙏 Please read my HOME SESSION 🤗 you find it by clicking "Read more" right here before the "About me" session, where it says "ACCEPTING GUESTS, Up to 2 guests, Shared room"
🗓️ If you request to stay at my place with more than 5/7 days of advance unfortunately i will decline your request because I can't be sure if I can host you
👎 I stopped answering to people that don't read my profile. It does make me feel rude but so are you 🤷🏼♀️
All the information from here down is not necessary to read, it's more of a couchsurfing diary that I keep.
The home session is the important part!
