Overview
About Me
Hola, my name is Claudia! I LOVE nature and animals and just think this planet is an astonishing place despite the bad things that can happen in the world. I strive to embrace and understand as much as I can about myself and fill my cup with new experiences, meet amazing people and learn from everything. Currently working remotely as a research collaborator, freelance medical interpreter while I prepare for my next step in academia!
My main practices include:
Minimalism
Gratitude
Slow-living
Music, Movies, and Books
I like classical music and bands like Vampire Weekend, The Smiths, The Cure. Steve Lacy, Frank Ocean have very varied interests and always love exploring new artists.
Movies: The Wizard of Oz, American Beauty, Marie Antoinette
Books: Non-fiction and reading about philosophy, psychology, science and other genres. My favorite authors include Sylvia Plath, Joan Didion, George Orwell, Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I studied Marine Biology and worked a lot with sea animals, also sea turtle conservancy!
Embarked on my first long-term solo trip this past October 2023. Have been pet sitting, house sitting all over the continent which has made me want to expand my horizons even more.
Teach, Learn, Share
I absolutely love food and cooking (one of the biggest reasons why I travel is to try the local food!) and eat balanced and healthy every day (an obsession of mine haha). Mexican dishes are my specialty as growing up I learned many recipes from my maternal family and proudly share how delicious they can be. Would love to learn to make traditional home-made recipes from other countries.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love to cook, you will for sure eat healthy if I'm in the kitchen :)
True connection and genuine conversations are something I truly value. Deep conversations about the meaning of life, personal beliefs, past experiences but can also have a laugh about silly trivial things and discuss celebrity gossip or talk about favorite movies and music.
I really value personal space and structure and routine so will make sure to respect any place I'm in.
Countries I’ve Visited
Belgium, Colombia, England, France, Guatemala, Netherlands, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland
Countries I’ve Lived In
Mexico, United States
