About Me

Hello! I’m half Nicaraguan, half Finnish - normally based in Copenhagen but spent the last year in Brazil. I just graduated from my Master’s this October ‘21 and I’m now taking a break to see the world.

I’m very open and social but respectful at the same time, enjoy making new friends and truly learning about local culture. I’ve lived with many people and in many places so have a lot of experience co-living; being hosted; sharing common spaces with people that are different and similar to me.

I’m pescetarian, like yoga, working out, environmentalism, feminism, hiking and dancing.
