Tolerant and open minded. Love nature! Currently living in Northern Mexico. Lived in Canada for a while too. I enjoy anything from dancing to walking around, exploring and chatting. I'm fluent in english and spanish and love to have a good time.

I've traveled to some places within Mexico, and other international cities like Tokyo, Montréal, Ottawa, Toronto and Chicago. I love art! I love to play and make music, make photographs, cook (I'm good, though not particularly great), rock climb and dance.

If you want to hang out that's great! If not, no problem. I'm independent and enjoy both company and being alone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Swam in the only nudist beach in Mexico. It was a liberating experience :)

-Stayed in a very unknown jungle in northern Mexico for two weeks. Explored mines, mountains, and fished and bathed everyday in a nearby river.

- Swam in one of the few lagoons in Mexico where the mix of salt and sweet water makes a specific kind of plankton glow in the dark, making water glow with blue sparkles with each movement of your body. Words can't describe this well enough, you have to experience this yourselves!

- Spent a full week photo documenting bird biologists capturing and tagging grassland sparrow birds with non-intrusive transmitters in the grasslands of northern Mexico.

- Volunteered at a 2-week long 'Art As Therapy For Children With Cancer' workshop in Morelia, Michoacán, México.

- Climbed big walls in Potrero Chico, one of the best climbing sites in Mexico.
