About Me

My blog: https://amanita-fate.blogspot.com/
English and spanish versions :)

I am currently half-way my PhD degree on Biogeochemistry (soil-atmosphere-water) or better climate change. I live in Germany and take advantage of every opportunity to explore the world teaching/learning and getting a taste of the beauty of every corner.

CURRENT MISSION

- Try to do live out of the monopolies
- To walk the roads that few walk, to delight the most exotic flavors, to see landscapes that shake, to fall in love for the world.
- Comprehend and understand the water cycle to provide solutions to the people quality life. Writing my own blog to express the experiences that I am permanently living, giving voice to those who do not have the opportunity to have it.

- Tratar de vivir fuera de los monopolios.
- Recorrer los caminos que pocos caminan, deleitar los sabores más exóticos, ver paisajes que estremecen, enamorarme del mundo.
- Entender el funcionamiento del ciclo del agua para proveer soluciones a la calidad de vida de las personas. Escribir mi propio blog para expresar las experiencias que estoy permanentemente viviendo, dando voz a aquellos que no la tienen.

ABOUT ME

- I love to write, travel and learn; talk and know experiences and histories from different people, maybe philosophise and comprehend the universe, feel myself as a transforming part of it to make it a better and nicer place. Therefore, I decided to travel going around the world making perdurable friendships where possible.

- Me encanta escribir, viajar y aprender; conversar y conocer historias y experiencias de la vida de las personas, tal vez filosofar y entender el universo, sentirme parte transformadora de él para hacerlo un lugar más tranquilo y amable. Es así que decidí ampliar mi mundo, recorriéndolo y haciendo amistades duraderas en cada parte.

PHILOSOPHY

- We all are one! .. .
- Together we stand, divided we fall.

- Todos somos uno!..
- Juntos permanecemos... por separado nos decapitan

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

- I would like to visit many places, there are a lot of pleasures behind the landscapes, hiden beyond the horizon, sometimes it is complicated to reach them alone. Would you go with me?. I am always able to share what I have.

- Me gustaría conocer muchos lugares, este mundo esconde una infinidad de placeres, pero a veces emprenderlo solo es muy complicado. Nos vamos juntos?. Siempre estoy dispuesto a compartir lo que tenga.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
