About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn more, grow as a human being and help people. Always following my heart.

ABOUT ME

I can say I am a intense and sensitive person that loves new experiences, this is one of the reasons I like to travel so much. I love adventure, reaching extremes, getting out of my confort zone. I really don't need many things to be happy if I have good company. My main interest when travelling is not simply to meet new places but to get to know new interesting people and their culture. I believe you can learn so much about the world and yourself`by getting in contact with differences.

PHILOSOPHY

If somebody gives you a lemon, don't complain, make a lemonade. I am not saying that I can always do this, but I try. Haha. Just make the best with what you have. Try to learn something everyday, this way you keep life interesting, like it is for a child. And never forget to help everyone you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a good psychologist I have this passion for people. I love to meet new interesting people, make friends, learn about their lifestile and culture, and share some good moments with them. I like to be more of a pilgrim than a tourist. So what a better way to do that than to surf on locals couches.

Interests

I have been realizing more and more how much nature is important to me. I love waterfalls, rivers, lakes, seas, mountains, beaches. Even though I have been mostly hiking and trekking, I think any other sport played in nature could be nice too, I absolutely love an adventure. Following this aproximation to nature I really try to pay as much atention as I can to my consumption patterns, thinking about my health and the environment. So I can't eat animals anymore, I just love them. I won't try to convince you to become vegetarian, but if you ask about my reasons for not eating meat I will give you a 100 of them.
Spirituality is also a big part of my life and I fell happy to get in contact with any form of it, as long as you preach love and not prejudice. I specially prefere to meditate, do yoga and mantras and I try to do it as much as I can.
Furthermore I am very passionate about cultures and different forms of expression, arts, music and most of all dancing. I am not much of a party girl but if you invite me to dance I will almost certainly be up for it, specially if it is a tradicional dance.
