About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning Everyday! :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a very open minded person, i love to learn stuff, I'm very curious, i like reading, listening to music, practicing yoga, dancing, hiking, swimming in the sea and sports in general! I also enjoy eating yummy and healthy food :) But most of all i love to travel the world and meet people from different cultures!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my couchsurfing experience have been by accident or in crazy ways but ended up being super cool!!! Some friends told me about this wonderful way to travel and meet people and that's why I got to know it. I've traveled a lot and shared rooms, houses, apartments and beds so that's why I love this ;)

Interests

I worked as a Dietitian for 10 years (this was my main profession), but not long ago I decided to change careers and went into Language Teaching. At the moment I am loving it! I'm a very active person in general and like to do all kind of different things, i love sports, meditation, yoga and doing fun activities! Even though I'm active i also like to have some time for myself so I can relax and chill.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't read much lately because of all the review and writing for my PhD thesis but in the past i used to read a lot. My favorite writer was Banana Yoshimoto, i read all of her books, don't know if she has more on the market now... I love almost all kind of music, it also depends on my mood. I could listen to some comercial music if i'm in the car listening to the radio or i could go to something more insightful like Sigur Ros but i must say that indie-pop music style will describe me the most. I love movies, i had a time in university where i watched a lot of independent films, almost every day. I studied in Barcelona and there was a movie theater where you paid for one ticket and you could watch like 5 different films the same day, i just loved that!!! Nowadays i watch movies from time to time, and also i choose the type of movie depending on my mood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with native little kids from an island in the coast of Nicaragua (Little Corn Island), visiting Grand Canyon National Park in the States and swimming in the Ganges in India.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've studied Nutrition and Dietetics and i love it! My parents also taught me a lot about food and healthy eating since I was little so that's something I could teach you for sure. I'm also a smoothie lover so I could teach you how to make nourishing and delicious smoothies :)
As a language teacher, I could also teach you Spanish.
