IT IS A PLEASURE TO BE HERE! My name is Carla, and I'm a 23-year-old girl with a friendly personality.
I'm energetic, curious, respectful, and eager to learn about new cultures and ways of life.
I studied Biochemistry and Cognitive Neuroscience at university, and I'm passionate about science, art, music, and the long and personal conversations that come from sharing a space with people from different places.

As an artist, I also pursue a creative endeavour: I draw whatever inspires me in the places and cities I visit...
I am really into walking, writing, and exploring off-the-beaten-track places. (you can find my artistic work on instagram: art.of.apocalypsis).

So I am clean, tidy, calm, and always willing to help around the house or share anything I can (a meal, a story, a song...). I value respect, trust, and good energy.

If you welcome me, I promise to be a good guest, to take care of your space, and, if you like, to share a little bit of knowledge and life experiences. Thanks for reading!

I am passionate about learning new things, I am always open to listen to people talking and sharing similar interests. I find this way of traveling so appealing because of all that brings with it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent several months doing scientific research on how gut microbiota influences brain function — then presented it to a team of neuroscientists! It was both challenging and inspiring, and made me fall even more in love with the mysteries of the brain and the human body.
