Trabajo de forma independiente desde hace un par de años. Me encanta vivir en el extranjero, en las rutas. Creo que moverse nos mantiene saludables.

Tengo un estilo de vida nómada, muy sencillo y minimalista. Uso el tiempo que tengo para conocer el Mundo y sus habitantes así que estoy en Couchsurfing para compartir la vida local de mis anfitriones. A cambio, espero poder traer un buen ambiente y lindos recuerdos. Siempre quiero aprender, ayudar y participar en las actividades de rutina. Viajar es la escuela de la vida.

Me gusta caminar en las montañas, andar en bici, escribir poesía, leer filosofía, la música, los mapas, las flores, el café y el vino, dormir.
Vivir simplemente pero vivir bien, vivir « sabroso » y cuidar a los demás.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

« He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata. »

This is a Māori proverb that means:
« What is the most important thing in the world? It is people, it is people, it is people. »

Music, Movies, and Books

🎶 I usually listen to a French radio station called FIP. I would gladly put it on while staying at your place.

📚 These days I'm reading a book about the history of Chile. Before I was reading one about Africa's. I love to read about history, geography and philosophy (Spinoza).

🎬 A movie, ONE movie: INTO THE WILD. Lost in translation. Her. Big fan of South Park!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am truly grateful to be able to explore the world as I do. The persons I have met on my way, my Journey, the beautiful relationships I have had, the emotions I have felt, all. Life has been such an intense adventure so far.

🏔️🌋 I have ascended quite a lot of mountains and volcanoes. Mount Kinabalu (Malaysia), Fuji (Japan), Hallasan (South Korea), Imarivolanitra (Madagascar) etc. Slept in my sleeping bag inside a volcanic crater in the Caribbean Netherlands.

👍🏼🚗 Hitchhiking and riding a motorbike around the Gobi desert in Mongolia. I also hitchhiked all over New Zealand, Australia, Chile, Argentina.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think that this is the whole point of Couchsurfing. I am an open book. Extremely curious. Sharing, listening, enlarging each other's vision, raising social awareness.

I speak 5 languages. Fluent in French, English and Spanish. Good level in Russian and Malay. I can read Latin, Cyrillic, Hangul (Korean) and Jawi (based on the Arabic script).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking 🍳 a French dish called croque-monsieur, croque-madame. Omelettes, potatoes. Stories, guidance, time.

Always willing to learn and to be involved in my host's daily life and activities. I have in the past taught in a learning centre, joined a podcast, led an online talking session with locals, planted mangrove seeds, composed songs using my poetry lines as lyrics, cooked local dishes, done gardening, attended a tea ceremony meditation, volunteered in the observation and tracking of turtles activity such as nesting and hatching.
