About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live and let live!

ABOUT ME

Oh, all about me? That isn´t easy =)
I was born in a city that is in the border to Brazil, the second of three lovely sisters. I lived there until I finished school and moved to Montevideo, the capital of Uruguay, to study Biology, but a problem with the first Mathematics course made me change my mind and picked Geology instead. It was a good decision, because I really enjoy being a Geologist (una geóloga). I continued having problems with Maths, but in the end I could defeat it.
In 2008 I won a scholarship to study in Germany, Dimensional Stones from Uruguay, in the pretty Göttingen. I finished my studies in 2012 and came back to Uruguay.
So, here I´m and that´s a little bit of my history, isn´t exactly all about me, but...

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a gift, every day we can choose between the smile or the tear. I think both bring more of itself, so I try to smile a lot so that the laugh comes easily. I believe in the power of each person to change the world, because each of us is part of the world, so if we change ourselves, we are changing the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend told me: "There is a guy coming next Monday, do you know Couchsourfing?" and I told her: "No idea", the rest is history!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I start surfing in Potsdam with a really nice couple, then I had my own surfers. I think CS is a cool way to travel and to help people travel and to get to know their life philosophy and share a little bit of life...

Interests

Nature, the equilibrium between the Earth and the life in it, the human kind and our relationships...
I like to read, to watch nice films, to enjoy an afternoon in a quiet natural place, to talk with my loved ones and to get to know other persons...
