About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Sailor in the Caribbean islands 🌴 ..

last year I was Volunteering and filming.

ABOUT ME

I listen to my heart and follow my travel desires. Open trip. One step after another. I move after my feelings.
I am an active girl who loves to smile and talk to people, visit new places and meet new friends. I love the sea and the nature. I like sports like cross-country skiing and biking and snowboarding and hiking and swimming and.................. all of them? no... not running!! I would love to run but I can not run more than 10 min without getting tomato red.
The last 6 years I have been living in Norway, a place that I love but I think I need some more social people around me now so I travel to the sunny countries for the next year.
I am sensitive and empathetic. I like making food and listening to stories.
I like to make myself feel at home where I travel because I like people coming to my place to feel at home as well from the first moment and make it not awkward.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace, love, happiness, freedom, animals, nature, humanslove...
Do whatever you love to do, but anything you have to. Motivation is the power go the good things done.
And RESPECT.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

This year I need lovely people to host me around different countries. If they agree, i will be filming my trip and sharing it to the people so to show everyone how amazing is having no frontiers. Opening the world for everyone and having fun.
So if you have something you want to show to the world 🌎 let me in 🤗 if not, no problem, I will film the city outside. However I am not filming every day.

The plan is to show how easy is to get done with your dreams being social, respectful, active, fearless, and nice. So I will be volunteering and traveling while doing different jobs like with animals, children, human rights, sports and so, and showing people how to do it themselves. Encouraging people to go out and DO WHATEVER THEY WOULD LOVE TO.

Interests

I love activities like kayak, skating, surfing, biking ... but I also like just walking around the new cities I discover perfect places to eat different special things. Like in Granada I could take you to the best place to eat avocado salad. mmm yummy
The thing I most like is talk and observe people, and, of course, if is summer, swim in some natural place :)
Apart from that, I love to be volunteer with children, animals, sports or social work.
I am searching for new places around the world where to learn new things.
