I'm always ready to go to dance and Karaoke. I can teach salsa :) If you see me with headphones, you can find me listening soul, blues, jazz, punk, indie or rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

mmm I was living in a bunker, in a secret location in the south of Somalia for year and a half.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really open with the information I have for traveling and I love to show and share my favorites spots in town. I know the difficulties when you had been in a new country with a different culture, different language and other mentality. I can send you some advices and recommendations of amazing and local experiences in Lima and in Rumania that you can do and you will love.
