I am a very proud Costa Rican. I live in San José, in Costa Rica, but I recently moved to France for a 2-year study experience (sep 2024 - sep 2026). I love to travel, not only to visit places but to meet people and get to experience part of their culture. The World has such an amazing cultural diversity! I'm a Civil Engineer, and my work is related to road safety, urban mobility and transportation. One of my biggest passions is to learn languages, which makes me feel more close to people around the globe and makes travel experiences way more enjoyable. I teach English and French as well, and I'm currently learning Portuguese and Polish. Feel free to ask me anything about Costa Rica, I would be more than glad to help you out! :-)

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I listen different types of music mainly in Polish, French and Portuguese, but also in Spanish, English, Hindi and Italian. Maybe my favorite music genre is pop in various languages!

About movies, I like horror, comedy, good dramas, animated... and also Netflix series. My all-time favorite TV series is Friends, I still can't get enough from it! My favorite Netflix series have been Dark, The Haunting of Hill House and Tabula Rasa.

About movies, where to start! First place, Amélie... I can watch it over and over! My other favorites include: Moulin Rouge, The Others, The Hours, The Greatest Showman, Call Me By Your Name, 3 Idiots (Bollywood movie), The Devil Wears Prada... and the list continues. I love to watch Disney animated movies in different languages, especially The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, The Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

- A hot air balloon flight on Egypt, ouside Luxor, overlooking the Valley of the Kings and the Nile river... breathtaking!

- Swimming down the God's bridge in Akchour, outside Chefchaouen in Morocco and jumping into the river from a very tall rock!

- Climbing Costa Rica's highest peak, the Cerro Chirripó, at a height of 3821 m a.s.l.
