Overview
About Me
Hi! I am an organized person, with a calm spirit and somewhat shy at first. I appreciate sincerity, communication, respect and empathy. I started engineering studies but I dropped out because I needed color and creativity in my future. So I studied Fine Arts and I experiment with all artistic brunches until I specialized in Graphic Design.
My passion for reading wants to converge with design and work in a publishing house in the future.
I currently enjoy my work in a museum which brings me closer to art in other ways because, although I don’t consider myself as an artist, photography is a medium that I use whenever I can.
I consider myself a restless person, I like to be in constant learning with creativity in every aspect of my life.
I learned to play the guitar and crochet on my own, some of the hobbies that bring me calm.
I have tried many sports over the years; swimming, skating, yoga, climbing and Muay Thai have a special place in my heart.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have a friend who told me about her experiences and the people she has met on her travels thanks to couchsurfing and I would like to have my own memories.
I think it’s nice to belong to a community with values of hospitality, cultural mix and camaraderie that help you grow as a person and created experience that you can share.

Music, Movies, and Books
I try to keep my reading and my playlist varied to nourish the soul. Although I have a weakness to fantasy, singer songwriters and Spanish rock.
I like it when people share their music and send me songs that they like it or remind them of me. I try to do the same.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My artistic works have been exhibited in four exhibitions. One in Porto, Espaço Mira, two in Madrid, Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre-Real Casa de la Moneda, and the most recent in Cuenca, Museo de Cuenca.
I am very proud to have designed a didactic material that can be use in many activities that encourage the learning and practice of Spanish sign language. It would be wonderful to contribute with my work to the deaf community in the future.
Teach, Learn, Share
I speak Spanish, English, Portuguese and a bit of French. Conversations in any of those languages helps you practice, learn and not forget!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am a great help in the kitchen, I have experience in restaurants. A meal, a conversation and sharing experience, culture and hobbies!
Long walk in nature and a natural listener without judgment, with respect and empathy we will talk about anything.
