ABOUT ME

My name is Maca and I'm Chilean (29). I really enjoy to meet people from other cultures.
I majored in English Literature and Linguistics.
I travelled to Tokyo and to Korea (Seoul, Sejong, Gonju, Daejeon, Daegu, Gimhae, Busan)
I enjoy meeting people from everywhere, learning as much as possible about them and about their culture.

PHILOSOPHY

Es mejor tener la boca cerrada y parecer estúpido que abrirla y disipar la duda.
It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.(Mark Twain)

“We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.” (Buddha)
