One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I decided to visit Ushuaia alone but I met incredible people every single day. When I was 38, I hiked the Winicunca Montain (Rainbow montain, 5200 m) and I finished the experience in a snow storm. It was incredible.
When I was 18, I flew in an ultralight plane. It´s a very impressive experience! It´s a very minimalistic airplane just with room for the pilot and other person. Recommended tour if you want to see Buenos Aires´ rural areas from the sky (General Rodríguez, Buenos Aires).

Teach, Learn, Share

I´m learning dance tango, I love its poetry and music too. I´m crazy about calligraphy and typography. I´m a foody person, a gourmande :) I really love fashion history and fashion design. I love to take lo-fi / analog photos

We can cook some empanadas with wine :) And a very sweet dessert: alfajores de dulce de leche or helado :D Also, we can share some of the best Argentinian music bands, writers, artists, cinematographers, etc!
