UPDATE: Back home in Buenos Aires, married with my ex boyfriend (I know!!! :) ), with a beautiful dog but still looking for adventures!!

PHILOSOPHY

I dont want to be a "cliche" so i am going to put some Ghandi words...

... Life has taught me that the people are friendly, if I am kind,

that people are sad, if I am sad

that all love me, if I love.

that all are bad, if I hate

that there are smiling faces If I smile,

that there are bitter faces , if I am bitter;

the world is happy, if I am happy

that people are angry, if I am grumpy,

that people are grateful, if I am grateful.

Life is like a mirror: If you smile at the mirror, I smile back.

The attitude to take towards life is the same as life will take towards me.

Whoever wants to be loved, has to love

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Smiling in the street to strangers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Always great, people give, give, give, even what they don't have. I surfed and hosted and try to get the best of both sides.
Also funny experiences like sleeping with the no English talking grandmother, I will never forget her and her snoring.

Interests

Music is my aeroplane!
I love animals, I have 3 dogs rescue from the streets (updated, now only one after moving out from my parent's house)
Strong vegetarian and environmentalist.
I am really good making people laugh, I think is the best thing about me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Dozens of dolphins in Brasil jumping around my boat.
Running in camels in Jaisalmer and healing the wounds in my butt.
Chinese new year in Shanghai (this guys really knows about fireworks)
Falling in love in 5 minuts.
Riding motorbike around rice terrance in Sapa
Water war in Thailand for the Thai news year.
Experience the beauty and magic in every corner of India.
Unfalling in love in 5 minuts.

Every time i travel I get that feeling in my stomach, similar to love, and I feel this is real life, this is what we are here for, not to work in an office, not to buy more clothes, nothing compares to the feelling of travelling.
