Overview
About Me
I started to travel and living abroad in 2012. Still hanging on.
Since then, my lifestyle has been changing constantly and I've been getting more and more into nature, a simpler lifestyle and just a quiet way to be. I love exploring places, watching movies, have a cup of tea, and just wandering around. I don't really like fancy things, they make me feel awkward.
I'm very independent and definitely an introvert but when I get involved in an interesting conversation or an inspiring environment I can get very social and eloquent (I still rather keep it low and chill and not all over the place :).

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: currently love Pond, Deerhunter, Bombay Bicycle Club, Blur
Movies: A24 movies (lol), Denis Villeneuve ones, Nolan’s, The Dawn Wall, Meru
Books: I'm more into articles and research on selective topics but I've been into climbing- autobiography books such as Tommy Caldwell's "The Push" and Alex Honnold's "Alone on the wall". Zizek and so on.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1. Surviving India every time I go.
2. Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. Amazing first trek.
3. All the "silly/absurd and sketchy ideas" that end up becoming the most memorable experiences, like cycling ridiculous distances in SE Asia on sketchy bikes, camping in Tokyo city center after a long day of hitchhiking, spending the night on the streets of Melbourne just because I lost the last train home and I refused to pay a taxi and so on.
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to learn more about mountaineering/climbing, languages, history, and culture of the places I visit. I'm not an expert on any field but I certainly can help with Spanish, Graphic Design, and share travel stories or know-how about it.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Help with the cleaning? Travel stories and know-how, Spanish language, music, laughs, walkabout. We can practice yoga if you're into it.
Are you lacking movies? I have tons to share!
