About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm a very smiling girl, always smiling, and if I'm not, something is wrong... :D Life is a challenge for me, it is so hard to understand and sometimes to deal with but it is so magic at the same time. Why we are here and what we are supposed to do in this life, I don't have the slightest idea and I never will so I better get used to it :) I want my life to be full of meetings, shared moments, friendship, love and wisdom. Wisdom is coming when one's gets older so let's not care about it too much now, let's enjoy youth and experience instead :p Even if I appreciate being surrounded by people I know or I don't know, I enjoy my time alone as well, I'm a kind of a loner and I can be as much a regular Chatty Cathy as silent as the grave...
Interests
I spend my time moving. I don't like to be too much time in the same place. I love to see, smell, hear new things, meet new people, try new concepts. Never take the same path twice in a row. Traveling is something I had a taste ten years ago and since then I haven't stopped and I can't contemplate my future without the perspective of travel. I am raving mad about learning languages, to me hear somebody foreign talking is a bliss, I'm in seventh heaven... Even if I'm far from being wise, I like a certain way of life. Money can't buy you happiness, as the saying goes, and less if you use it to crush the people around you. Earn money, fairly, so you can use it to pursuit your own happiness and you'll be well-equipped to help the others. I like meeting people that think differently from the masses (those behaving like sheeps), whose eyes are open to the world and see it as it is (or get closer).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I hosted André two years ago in a flat I shared with two roomates of mine. A "mochileiro" (backpacker), an Into-The-Wild-boy who was traveling alone without any money (really got his credit card burnt and passport torn to pieces). He was from Brazil but he wanted to see the 7 new wonders. He was on his way down to Portugal and invited me to go with him on the Way of Saint James (of Compostela, not the whisky). A week later, we were walking together on the "camino", spent three weeks together and we had the best time ever. Good moments, hard ones, but I never regretted to have hosting him on our couch in the first place. I would have never been to Santiago if he wasn't for his proposal. Thank you André, I miss you
