I´m a wonder junkie, always looking for new experiences to get in a flow state and keep my mind curious. I´m a big fan of hedonistic sustainability and biomimicry design. I love to find inspiration in nature and reconnect with it, I think we are wired to be outside, that is, exploring. In terms of my professional life I´m a sustainability science master student focusing on social-ecological urbanism.
I also enjoy photography and writing.
Here is one website where I have a small Portfolio : http://melissaingaruca.wixsite.com/melniverse

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
