About Me

Hi there :) I'm a 26-year-old peruvian who loves backpacking and hitchhiking. I majored in biology in university but after graduating I discovered that I love teaching languages, so I’m currently working as an English teacher :) I guess what describes me best is that I'm a happy person! I'm also super spontaneous, outgoing, funny, and I love nature and adventure, as well trying new things.

Other facts about me:

- I’m a hardcore backpacker
- I’m deeply passionate about environmental conservation
- I usually travel by hitchhiking
- I love outdoor activities such as: hiking (including some bushwhacking!), camping, slacklining and currently trying to learn rock climbing and surfing. In the future I would love to learn freediving and mountaineering😁
- I love singing and dancing (although I’m not very good at either, oops!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Went to live by myself without knowing anyone or even the language in Brazil. During my time there, traveled to many incredible places just by hitchhiking :)

-Lots of hiking, including trails +5000m above sea level and creating my own trails when there were none (aka bushwhacking)!

- Hitchhiked on my own for about a month from Patagonia to Santiago de Chile; did around 4900km :)

-Lived mainly camping and hiking for about a month in Patagonia (you can imagine the smell hahaha)

- Solo traveled with a broken wrist in a foreign country when I was only 19. I was such a badass ahahaha

- Worked with manatees in an animal rescue center in the Peruvian Amazon

- Worked with sting rays, whale sharks and turtles in the northern part of Peru

Teach, Learn, Share

Sadly, I might be the only peruvian that can't cook😅 but I can teach Spanish and English and share cool stories :)
