Just starting a sabbatical year around Europe and Southeast Asia. I studied and worked with environmental management. I've worked for almost 10 years in the mining industry, trying to make it better from the inside. I've quit it to spend some time traveling and getting to know more of the world, the people, and myself. Hoping to discover what to do next... how to make this world better. I'm stubborn and hard working (too much, so had to take a break =P). I'm thoughtful and always want to help. I hate injustice and people that think they are better than others. I love the outdoors, parks, nature reserves, hiking, just wandering through the city and country side and see how people live by, "people watching", street/farmers/flea markets...

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

One of the objectives of my sabbatical is to meet people and get a feel of the local life, as I'm also looking for a place to live next. Knowing new people and opening up is one of the things I want and need to develop in myself, so CS has been helping me a lot! Also, being honest, the plan is to travel for around an year, so really need to cut expenses.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Sleep under the stars at the Atacama desert, scubadive at Fernando de Noronha and the Great Barrier Reef. Quit my job to travel the world?

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I really want to learn more about different kinds of living and thinking, different religions and beliefs, feminisms, LGBT rights, yoga, meditation, sustainable practices, community living and sharing, physical and playful activities and dances... I've been trying stuff like the hoop (lira), silk, pole, antigravity yoga (?!) and what ever else I can find!

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

The little I have with me, my foolish ideas, my little experience... and anything worth sharing. I am a great dish washer! (No cooking though, sorry!)
