About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world, change te world!

ABOUT ME

Hi, my name is Désirée! I'm open minded, sweet, fun to be with (I hope) and I would love to meet other fun people, lifestyles and experience other cultures!

But before we can spend time together, make sure you:

- have a great sense of humor
- share some interests with me
- might teach me something
- at least shower once a week

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the little things in life, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things...not copied at all!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Before my trip I wrote:

Quit my job (in these times!!!) to explore a new part of the world. To get lost. To eat scary food. To talk to strangers. To climb volcanoes. To kitesurf the Atlantic Ocean waters. To better my photography skills. To learn new languages. To wake up in the jungle. To see the sunset with a new backdrop. To drink beers/cocktails wherever, whenever. To find out what I am really capable of... Sounds like a good plan :D

After trip:

Been there, done that :P High lights: Machu Picchu, swimming among wild dolfins, surfing master waves, the most beautiful beaches and the people I met who made this trip amazing!
