About Me

Hi! I´m a woman from the north of Spain, although I live in Madrid because of my job. I´m an openmind person, I like know people, know different cultures and my passion is travelling and getting to know new people and places.
In Madrid I live in a rented flat with 3 flatmates and my dwarf rabbit called Arya (because she is small and brave like the character of Game Of Thrones).
I studied Journalism in the University of Santiago de Compostela, and I made an Erasmus year in Tampere (Finland) but I after finish it, I realized that I don´t like this proffesion, so I studied Criminology and now I word in this area.

During 2019 i travelled around south asia (Tailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Malasia and Indonesia) and in september i stopped in Australia to Study english for 7 months. After this break, i will continue travelling! Next stop: New Zealand!!i am excited!!! Lets go Hobbit land!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like rock and pop music, above all singer-songwriter, and ska and reggea music. I like to go to festivals and spend two or three days dancing and speaking with my friends and new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived one year in Finland, and there I did a tradition, that is to go to the sauna, near a frozen lake, and after some minutes inside the sauna you go running to swimming to the lake. It was amazing! very funny and a different activity.
Also, last year I went to Costa Rica, and I did a activity called canopy. It´s a zip-line among trees. I was very scared, because I don´t like altitude sports, but at the end I enjoyed a lot.
But, the most amazing things I did in my life was walking on a glacier in Argentina and walk up the Annapurna circuit in Nepal!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach Spanish lenguage and some typical spanish things, like omelettes, and also some specific things from Galicia, like galician dances, or octopus at galician style.
I´m interesting in learn all lenguages I could, and every traditional food from different countries.
I´m learning to play the ukulele!! So, if you have some advice ir trick! please, share with me!!
