ABOUT ME
"Yo soy como el chile verde, picante pero sabroso"
My favorite poem (thus far) is one by Mary Oliver called "Wild Geese" and I love to dance. I love to cook and eat yummy food, to share chocolate and tea, to make little bouquets of wild flowers. I am very passionate about things I care about and am interested in what makes other people care deeply too. I love to ask "What do you mean by that?"
Cuando viajo, soy más tranquila (a veces..), más callada porque lo más interesante para mí es esuchar a gente nueva y diferente. Te preguntaré sobre todo, especialmente las plantas y hierbas locales.
Gosto muito de explorar lugares urbanos, mas também as áreas naturais. Estudei un pouco de planeamento urbano então estou muito curiosa sobre a idéia da cidade e da cidadão.
Me gustaría ser productora de cacao orgánico un día, tal vez por un tiempo en la tierra de mi abuela en Puerto Rico. Me interesa mucho la agricultura urbana y sostenible--quiero luchar por la soberanía alimentária para todos.
I have a newfound love of honeybees, and I would love to grow lots of lavender to have lavender honey!
PHILOSOPHY
"If I am not for myself, then who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, then what am I? And if not now, when?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now, I'm a traveler, but in the future I definitely want to be a host too!
Ahora estoy viajando y conociendo a la comunidade de CS, pero en el futuro quiero ser un host!
Agora somente viajo, mas no futuro quero conhecer e receber viajantes.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
AWESOME. INCREIBLE. OTIMO.
Best moment so far:
30 Brazilian CSers at a classic gaucho churrasco outside of Porto Alegre all talking furiously to me at once about which Rio Grande do Sul soccer team is the best. Soooo great!
Interests
I'm interested in learning new dance moves, new languages, cooking and eating yummy food with other people, exploring cities, bees, gardening, talking about poetry, politics, or anything else!
Eu gosto de dançar, cozinhar e comer comida saborosa com amigos, explorar lugares novos (especialmente cidades), trabalhar na terra, falar de poesía, política, qualquer coisa realmente...
