I'm Goretti from Barcelona! I'm a PhD student 👩🏽‍🔬 currently working at Northeastern University, in Boston.
I'm an animal lover, I spend most of my travelling time searching different, free and amazing species around the world. I have my own “wild” family, my fluffy kids are called Daga and Alf 🐕🐶. I also have a camper van 🚌 and we love to travel around all together with no roadmap.

In my free time I love scuba-diving, yoga 🧘🏽‍♀️ and skating on rollerblades. I also spend most of my free time working as a cooperant aid in an NGO called Fisios Mundi (check their social media!), we work in a different cooperation projects with kids with cerebral palsy in Palestine, Vietnam, India, Côte d’Ivore and Nepal.
