About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to be happy, and let happiness find me in as many countries in the world as possible!

ABOUT ME

I am a wanderer by nature, and i´ve always struggled with settling down in one place, house, job, etc. I love the adventure of life, and I thrive on meeting new people in new incredible places. I just finished off a degree in Spanish. I chose languages because no matter what I do with it, Spanish will always be beneficial to my life and will help me on my travels. I also think it is one of the most beautiful languages there is. If I were rich, then I would dedicate my life to learning languages, so i could communicate with every person in the world. I believe communication is the most important thing in life.

PHILOSOPHY

I have 2 at the moment:
Be happy, and let happiness find you
No hay mal que por bien no venga

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmm...it is so hard to choose, but probably it would have to be riding on a top of a bus along the Ecuadorian coastline on the way to Montanita. There was no room in the bus, and it was the last bus of the night, so I got on top of it! I rode on top, as the sun went down with a perfect view of the coast. I continue to search for that feeling of happiness and peace in my life.
