CURRENT MISSION

To be friendly to a travellor and the world will be friendly to me in return

ABOUT ME

I´ve started travelling when I was 19. USA was very instructive to me and did lots of good, but never became a home. Then Argentina got the 1st love title, this babe treated me toughly. Somehow I moved to Panamá and started living la vida loca. Never fell in love with it, but enjoyed everyday in that year. Ok, now it´s time for the 2nd love of my life - Colombia. Because el riesgo es que te quieras quedar, jejeejee
So, me... sociable, easy-going and don´t snore! Keep to the yoga life-style, feel happy most of the time and will share it with good people from whatever country you are.
I´m single, have an English bulldog, good at coffee and muffins making and will probably cook them for my guests=). I work hard as a high school Spanish teacher and travel when I have a chance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen 2 oceans at once - the Atlantic and the Pacific from the top of Baru Volcan in Panamá. At that moment I believed I could fly.
A small 2 metres shark happened to be in 30 metres away from me in the ocean. The boat guy said it was "unoffensive", though I prefered not to prove that.
