About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm an adventurous, curious and free thinking person, always ready to have fun and enjoy life to the fullest! I love to travel the world, discover new people, new cultures, open my mind to other point of views and throw myself in new challenges...
My last endeavour? An urban conscious community called UNITY in San Pedro, the alternative and artsy suburb of the capital of Costa Rica.
We aim at growing as much food as we can (we have a big garden), raise chickens, host conscious events (conscious cinema nights, retreats, seminars) and offer classes (yoga, meditation, tantra, up-cycling, dance, urban permaculture, fermentation...). All the events and classes will be offered on a donation basis and all the proceedings will go charity (preferably organisation involved in promoting community development, alleviate poverty and foster the empowerment of local people through micro-lending to nearby communities).
Globally I would say my objective is to inspire people (tourists as well as locals) to lead their life in a more respectful way toward our planet and its inhabitants, to respect religious/cultural/gender differences, to open their eyes to environmental, social and humanitarian issues, awaken their soul and simply put to encourage them to take action to make our world a better place.
The project actually just started so right now we in the process of renovating the place and planting our very first trees and crops... we are welcoming couch-surfers who don't mind staying in a cool but not finished place and are ready to help out with the renovation and the garden... Come join the fun!

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm quiet eclectic when it comes to music, I love many genres : reggae, ska, festive gypsy music, glitch, progressive trance, psy-chill, dirty electro, D&B, dubstep, electroswing, rock (especially the good old stuffs from the 70's), deephouse...
I like books that teach you something rather than just entertain you. The best is when they do both at the same time! Same goes for movies. I'd rather watch a documentary that awakens your consciousness to a problem in the world than a lame Hollywood movie... The last good documentary I watched is called earth 2100 and it's a real eye opener, I recommend it to everyone...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1 year around Australia with a van, 1 year Erasmus in Madrid, 1 crazy night in the secret catacombs of Paris (not the touristic ones), visited a secret pirate stash in a hollow island in Thailand and so many other amazing trips around the world but it will take too long to write about them here, I'd rather share those experience with you when I meet you!!!
