About Me

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in hard-work and personal reflection; social responsibility and a balance between independence and community. Playfulness is essential, and I've got a soft-spot for sarcasm and spontaneity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have had wonderful experiences being hosted, and also had the opportunity to meet some great people when they came to Salta. Unfortunately I live in a space that doesn't allow for any privacy so for now I'm up for outings and gatherings.

He tenido experiencias repositivas siendo alojada por otros miembros y ademas recibiendo gente en mi casa cuando vivia en Salta. Ahora no tengo el espacio para recibir gente asi que me lleno a traves de visitas y aventuras del dia con miembros de CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love traveling on my own and making friends with locals and extranjeros. I feel very fortunate to have been able to stay with local people on most of my travels, and immerse myself in spontaneous adventures and local culture.

Interests

First of all, I love learning. I know, call me crazy. Second of all, I have a passion for travel and especially everything Latin American. I'm into raw foods, yoga, rock climbing, mountaineering, and backpacking. Don't forget horses, reading, slacklining, dancing, potlucks, organic gardening, photography, Marine Phytoplankton, movies, rad music, the desert after it rains, durian, and being in good company with good conversation.

Me encanta viajar y toda cosa Latinoamericana. Soy aficionada de comida cruda/organica, escalada en roca, montañismo, caballos, leer, escribir, yoga, la lluvia, bailar, viajar, fincas orgánicas, concierto de musica, etc.
