CURRENT MISSION

Inspiration! Visit places, meet people, do things that inspire me in any way. Something that fills my heart and mind and makes me grow as a person.

Being grounded! Getting a good Connection to myself, finding inner peace and a good mindfulness.

Going with the Flow! Seeing the beauty that surrounds me no matter where in the world I am, taking things as they are if I cant change them and jumping on the "Train of life" if good things cross my way.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 30-year-old TV-Journalist from Germany, who is half-mexican and on the Journey. I am a very friendly, open-minded, respectful and easy-to-talk-to person and I share the believe that travelling is all about the people you meet along the way. My perfect day of travel would be to walk around a nice City or small village with sun in my face, ice cream in my hand and a heart-touching person beside me that i can talk to easily. Or just sit on top of a hill, looking at breathtaking nature and inhaling its peace.

Besides that I like listening to Music (mostly Singer/Songwriter but I love live Music of all kinds), watch Movies, have food with nice people, relax and read a good book, do sports, I am interested in the cultures of this world, in art and painting (which I really want to learn more about), and of course I love to travel!

UPDATE:

Currently I am travelling the world with my sister, so for any further references please also look up her CS Profile: Julia Pelaez Avila

PHILOSOPHY

I do believe that a smile on your face really can change so much!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking through a desert in Israel.
Touch some snow while the Air was 20 degrees Celsius on a Mountain in New Zealand.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a good listener but can also talk a lot and tell some funny Stories if I want to. I can share my travelling adventures, show you some very basic mexican recipies, Salsa dancing steps and some great German Singer/Songwriters.

Eventhough I am not that much into things like bungeejumping (cause that scares the hell out of me!), I am open to new things and can be adventurous if its something that excites me :)
