About Me

I'm a Spanish scientist (I do cancer research for a living) currently living in Belgium. My main passion is travelling, and I travel as much as I can. Some years ago I took a year off to travel around the world, then I was also travelling when the pandemic arrived and I was lucky to be stuck in an island of the Philippines for 4 months. However, right now I can only travel during my holidays, but I make the most of it anyways. When travelling, I like meeting people from different countries, getting to know new cultures, trying to learn a few sentences in different languages, getting close with the nature, seeing beautiful places, living adventures, managing to get out of difficult situations... I got used to travelling without many plans, and I love it!! That's why I usually decide my next destination last minute (and also why I tend to send CS requests quite late, I apologise in advance for that).

As about me... I don't know, I'm easy going, very indecisive, optimistic (always think about the up side of every situation, and see bad experiences as something to learn from and stories to tell). I like to party, but I also enjoy chilling out. I'm a good person, and I like to make my small contribution to make the world a better place. I like to believe in people, although I often get disappointed, but there is always someone that makes me believe again in humanity.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled alone for a year around the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could share my traveling experiences and my knowledge about cancer and genetics. Well, and if you are learning Spanish of course I could help with that!
