Saving the rainforest

ABOUT ME

HI consider myself as a citizen of the world. I grew up in Costa Rica, lived in France for many years, then in NYC, and now I run an ecolodge in Costa Rica. I love a good conversation, singing, culture, design and contemporary art. I have travelled to 18 countries so far and I look forward to expand my list!
