About Me

The first impression people make about me is that I am quite bashful, I'm aware of that, but It is not a completely truth. At the same I can be so peaceful, I can talk to you about so different things and for so many hours, that, at some point, you're going to start thinking I am a little chatterbox lol

I think I am too consistent and tenacious, besides I consider I have a steady character as well. Plus, I always try to learn more from others and always think someone has interesting things to share, no matter who you are.

-----------------

La primera impresión que las otras personas tienen de mi es que yo soy un poco timida, estoy segura de eso, pero aunque sea verdad al principio, tan pronto algunas horas de conversación, me vuelvo otra persona. Yo puedo conocerte hoy y hablarte sobre muchas cosas distintas y por muchas horas seguidas. Eso es decir que aunque parezca reservada, siempre estoy dispuesta a conocer gente nueva y a escucharlas.

La verdad es que creo que soy una persona muy coherente con lo que digo y hago, una persona estable, o sea, podéis confiar en lo que yo te digo. Además, siempre intento conocer bien a la gente y creo que siempre tenéis algo para compartir de tu vida, sea quien sea y sea lo que sea.

Interests

My interests are, basically, travelling, writing, meeting new people, learning new languages, reading, listening good music. On top of that, I am mesmerized by musical instruments, especially guitar and harmonica.

Music, Movies, and Books

I do like this quote:

“make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy. But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.” Jon Krakauer, Into the wild.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paragliding in Mendoza, Argentina! I recommend it so hard!

Teach, Learn, Share

So, I have a blog. I would love to write so more often, but I really try to make my best (I don't have so much time at this moment). For now, It is a blog about my trips around South America.
