About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ser feliz y compartir las cosas que amo / to be happy and share things I love

ABOUT ME

Soy una persona muy simple, abierta y honesta. A veces tímida, a veces muy extrovertida. Soy descendiente de japoneses, así que tengo una mezcla de culturas bastante interesante.

Disfruto de los pequeños placeres de la vida, como la comida, pasear en colectivo, jugar con animales, escuchar música y bailar.
Por lo general siempre tuve una vida bastante simple, normal, rutinaria, con sueños grandes por delante. Uno de ellos es viajar y conocer el mundo entero, y por eso estoy aquí. En este último año viví una situación muy difícil, que me hizo replantear muchas cosas, entre ellas, el decidir de una vez por todas, dejar la rutina y los miedos de lado, para salir y viajar.

.......................................................

I consider myself as a simple, openminded and honest person. Sometimes shy, sometimes very outgoing. I'm a japanese descendant, so I've got a pretty interesting "mix" of cultures.

I enjoy little pleasures of life, as eating, bus traveling, playing with animals, music and dancing.
I've always had a pretty normal and simple life with big dreams ahead. One of them is travelling the world, and that's why I'm here. In this 2013 I had to deal with some very tough situations, that made me realize that once for all I have to face my fears, leave routines aside, in order to move on to my dreams.

PHILOSOPHY

Creo que uno tiene que vivir la vida con el fin de inspirar a otros. Inspirar a seguir luchando, a soñar y a luchar por ese sueño, pase lo que pase.

I think life is to be lived in order to inspire others. To inspire to keep trying and never give up on our dreams, whatever may happen.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Puedo cocinar, hacer pasteles, tortas, galletitas, comida japonesa, e incluso puedo enseñar a hacer estas cosas. Sería bueno compartir muchas cosas mas.

I can cook, bake cakes, cookies, pies, japanese food, and I can also teach how to cook. It would be nice to share other things as well.
