About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit every corner of the world! I believe i'm here to enjoy and not to work for someone else's dreams. I have the world map etched in my head and I'm always looking for new places to go and new challenges to do, for example, an ONG in Africa, working on a farm in Panama, a marine biology course in Honduras, etc

ABOUT ME

I love to have an adventure lined up...something to strive and save up money for! I don't want the best car, mobile, clothes, etc, i just want to make myself and others happy and that happens when I reach my goals and help out in any way I can, especially volunteering! I'm definitely don't sit around procrastinating, I'm a doer!!!
So travelling off the beaten path when possible is what makes me the happiest and right now its hard for me to think about settling down in one place! That kind of freaks me out!!!

PHILOSOPHY

The highest form of intelligence is discipline! 😬

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm super laid back, and love meeting and helping people from all over the world! I have always let people stay with me way before this site popped up and I so glad it has, I have already met some of the most amazing people. It was recommended to me by a good friend of mine who has been travelling for the past 2 years!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

After a few years now in CS I have surfed more than I've hosted, but I promise to open my next home as soon as I have one! Every single person I've met along the way on here, I am still in contact with and I can call some of them my bestest friends! You just have a great connection when you meet another like minded person, kind of get a natural high off it!

Interests

Padel tennis, snorkelling, dancing salsa, action movies, travel story books like The Gringo Trail! Hiking, biking, playing bat and ball on the beach, exploring...talking with new people and learning more about this amazing world we live in! I love to be inspired..

Anything about travel or sharks and whales! I love latin american music - all types! Also enjoy reading about inspirational people who have done great things with their lives, biographies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every trip i do i try to make it amazing and extreme and different...ive been blown away by all the waterfalls, volcanoes, craters, lakes, ruins, castels and hidden paradises with no name that ive been lucky enough to see...you can't pin point one amazing thing...Machu Picchu is a cliché, so is Tikal..so i will go with the filming of a documentary i did with my Uncle around central and south America! That really was a unique experience which i would love to write a book about some day! I also backpacked with my boyfriend from Costa Rica to Brazil...

Teach, Learn, Share

I just completed this year my TEFL course in Rio in Brazil, so if anybody wants to practice their English...I also speak Spanish and Portuguese but would love to learn French this year!
I can share my home, my stories and experiences, some advice maybe, safety, fun, good food and of course a welcome drink(s)!! : )))
