Overview
About Me
Hey! I'm a biology student from Galicia ("Spain") but now I study in León. I'm into discovering new places and just going with the flow. I’m really curious by nature, so I love trying new things, meeting people from different cultures, and seeing where the adventure takes me. Big fan of spontaneous plans, good conversation, and getting a little lost sometimes, it’s usually when the best memories happen.
I'm especially interested in everything related to Eastern European culture and history. I have a deep fascination with its art, architecture, and traditions. I'm particularly drawn to the aesthetics of the socialist and post-socialist periods, both in terms of urban landscapes and visual culture, including monumental art, socialist realism, and historically symbolic public spaces. I'm also intrigued by how these elements coexist today with new cultural and social narratives across the countries.
I’m equally passionate about everything related to nature whether it's diving or surfing in the sea, or mountain biking and hiking on land. I love exploring both coastal and mountainous landscapes, and I find great inspiration observing animals in their natural environment.
