About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Oh, didnt know I had one! :p

ABOUT ME

It's hard to fit a personal description in this tiny box, but I'll do my best. I'm a South American girl that has been traveling for some time and would like to keep on doing so a little bit longer. I'm in New Zealand at the moment, about to finish this amazing adventure that began over a year ago, heading to Australia and escaping from the Southern Hemisphere winter trying to hide in the comforting Asian summer..., since I had no warmth this January...
I grew up in a small town in the Buenos Aires Province, got bored of the countryside and moved to NY and then to the Capital of Buenos Aires, lived there for 13 years, studied and made a lot of friends, got burnt and stressed out in the big city and decided to study and practise some yoga to find the right balance, which I believe I did :), then moved to Aotearoa and now that I began typing I feel I could write a book :)

PHILOSOPHY

There are two kinds of people... "There are drainers and there are radiators, I like radiators" I'm stealing this quote from my CS host Eric! :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

“There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.” Albert Einstein.
I belong to the second group, so It's kinda hard to answer to the question "Amazing Things You've Seen or Done. Pick two or three moments that left you awestruck. What were they?"
1) Watch my 6 year old students in class during the learning process...
2) Watch the bottle-nosed dolphins swimming in Milford Sound...
3) Climb the top of Mount Ruapehu, see the crater and its stunning blue/gray water and then come down snowboarding... Life's too short!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, Thailand, United States, Uruguay, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

Argentina, Mexico, New Zealand, United States
