Buenas! 👋🏻

I was raised in Colonia del Sacramento, the oldest city in Uruguay, founded in 1680. Four years ago I moved to Montevideo where I am studying International Business, but as I'm not able to stay with only one thing, I'm also doing a BSc from the University of London.
Five years ago I did my first trip outside the country with my brother, and since then I began to take a period of the year to travel. Now I can't stop.
I consider myself very independent and always willing to learn and meet new places; alone or with friends, we just plan a trip and go ahead

We've got one shot and one life to live.
Life is short, live it well.

Cheers!

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

My goal in life is to learn as much as I can to get to know the reality, and from there, change it for better and help people.
Therefore, I'm convinced that the best way to learn is by the experience itself, so being able to share time with people from other cities, countries and cultures, will help me open my eyes and widen my perspective about life at the time I learn from a local.

During 2020 I'll be travelling through South East/East Asia!

I'll really enjoy sharing some beers with you! 🍻

Zainteresowania

I love sports and have done plenty of them like rowing, surfing, swimming, basketball, handball, volleyball, tennis, paddle, soccer, taekwondo, athletism, weightlifting, crossfit and even chess

I also love nature. I'm in deep interested in its conservancy, and as volunteering makes me feel good, a couple of years ago with some friends we founded "Colonia Limpia", an NGO focused in promoting environmental awareness through workshops at schools and ocean cleanup activities ♻️

I have not eaten meat for the past 4 years and I feel awesome.
