About Me

I'm a spontaneous person, that loves learning new languages, cultures, getting to know new places and trying good food. I love to travel and outdoors activities, so I'm adventurous as well. I'm an activist person, I was leader of my Student's Association back home, which conducts several activities for the interests of students.

I'm on my way to become a globetrotter, I lived in Brazil for a period doing an exchange program and now I'm studying Environmental Engineering in Italy. Let's see where I land later :) Why do we go away? 'cause no matter where we end up we will land there with open eyes.

PHILOSOPHY
Some phrases and proverbs I carry with me in my journey..
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand."
"Con la boca se pide lo que se quiere". (What we want, with our mouths we ask). So always think positive and stay positive.
Hakuna matata!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way for getting to know other people around the world and from other cultures, not just as a tourist but from the eyes of the locals.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visiting the Tulum ruins in Mexico. Best view ever and when you close your eyes the energy that you feel there is even better.

Waiting for the dawn in Ipanema beach. Something I recomend everyone that goes to Rio de Janeiro.

Laying down to see the stars in the Chaco Paraguayo.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy a good discussion with open minded people who respect others points of view, 'cause it would be so boring if we all think the same.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Always great to know new people, having a great time just sharing experiences and having new ones. I can teach cooking paraguayan and brazilian meals and a little bit of Guarani (official language from Paraguay besides Spanish).

Countries I’ve Lived In
