About Me

I am a 28 years old uruguayan anthropologist who doing her Master in Granada, Spain. I have lived twice in Germany for one year and a couple of months because of scholarships to study there. I have also travelled a lot around Latinoamerica and Europe.

I've written a thesis on Anthropology about Nomads, people who choose travelling as a way of life. So, I would love to meet people from different countries, who are travelling in this way, in order to share experiences and continuing researching on this amazing topic.

I really enjoy of good parties, movies at home or in the cinema, music, getting to know new people, travelling and meeting my friends and going out with them to a pub or somewhere to enjoy good music.
