ABOUT ME

I love hammocks in the parks and people watching in the streets. I love the moment you arrive in a completely different country where nothing looks familiar at first and you need to learn to read the clues. I can't imagine life without friends, cans of coke, chocolate, wine and picnics. In no particular order as long as friends come first :) And I really like new things.

Also, I need to be steered away from coffee. Maybe it is because I didn't like it and didn't drink it until recently, but coffee makes me go nuts. I bounce off the walls and speak like the squirell from 'Hoodwinked' or like an old record played at the speed of 45' instead of 33. I sort of have a ban on coffee when I'm not alone.
I'm also way too competitive and will try to kick your butt at most sports. I grew up playing tennis but will play anything that involves rackets or balls.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Went to Tibet on my own to teach in an orphanage, with an address scribbled in Tibetan on a piece of paper as my only guideline in a place where not only noone speaks English but also everyone wants to inspect that piece of paper that you try not to lose. The amazing bit is that I actually managed to get there, even though the address travelled on one motorbike, my backpack on the other and me on the third.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm quite good at sports and darkroom photography.
I love learning other languages. Teach me French or Spanish and you can stay for a while! :)
