Hello! Nice too meet you. My name is Rumi and means stone or rock in Quechua. I am a tour guide but i need to practice and learn more about English. I love to share my culture with memories like hikes, food, photography, visual arts, music, movies, and explications about history, traditions, philosophy and folklore. I am someone who likes more the day life than night life. I like a healthy life style and people with a lot of respect. My hobbies are running, hiking, meditation (budhism), photography, cooking, reading and listen music. I was an enviroment activist from 2018 to 2023, while I was voluntier with dogs and nursing home (old people); these activities without contact of foreigners this is why I want to improve right now my skills on English.
