About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We are all citizens of this wonderful world/ Todos somos ciudadanos de este hermoso mundo

ABOUT ME

I have experience in travel and also in hosting people. I like to share experiences, but I also like to be on my own, part of the day. I'm a fairly but cheerful person. I like sports, hiking and trekking- I have no problem with kids or with animals.
I adapt quite well to most circumstances and if there is something that I do not like I just tell this gently and go away. I have friends all around the world and travelling is my only adiction :)

Tengo experiencia en viajar y en hospedar gente. Me gusta compartir experiencias y charlas pero también me gusta estar sola parte del día. Soy una persona bastante alegre. Me gustan los deportes, caminatas y escalar montañas. No tengo problemas con chicos ni con animales. Me adapto fácilmente a todo y si algo no me gusta simplemente lo digo y después me puedo ir. Tengo amigos en todo el mundo y viajar es mi única adicción :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do not do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Life is short, enjoy every single day.

No hagas a los demás lo que no te gusta que te hagan a ti. La vida es corta, disfruta cada día.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I´m a couchsurfer both giving host and been a host abroad. I'm usually not free to take for a coffee or small visits since my work is almost full time

Participo de couchsurfing tanto alojando como viajando y solicitando alojamiento en otros paises. No estoy muy disponible para pasear.. mi trabajo me lleva muchas horas!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted some nice people, but the best was training my mother in this system. She used it and loved it at Portugal and at Tucumán. There is not an age to travel and be happy! Now she's 80' and it's travelling in a motorhome through South America.. :)

He hospedado algunos huéspedes adorables, pero lo mejor fue entrenar a mi mamá en este sistema. Ella lo usa y lo ha adorado en Portugal y en Tucumán. No hay edades para viajar y pasarlo bien! Ahora ella tiene 80 años y viaja en su motorhome por Sudamérica.. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

everyday is a single amazing experience. But for the ones you say.. wouuu, I have travelled by bus from Argentina to Ecuador, climbed 5200 mosl, fly in paragliding and hot baloon, stayed at the sharahuis refugees camps in Africa, met incredible people in incredible parts of the world, etc.

Cada día trae una experiencia asombrosa, pero de esas que dices.. guauu (!), he viajado en ómnibus desde Argentina a Ecuador, trepé cerros de 5200 msnm, volé en parapente y en globo, estuve en los campamentos de refugiados saharahuis en África, y conocí gente increíble en todas partes del mundo..
