FIRST: Do NOT send a request more than 2 weeks in advance.
SECOND: If you send a copy and paste request and do not read my short profile description, I will say no directly.
THIRD: I will try to hang out with you and go around the city, but my little free time is very precious and sometimes I am very tired and need to sleep, or just want to hang out in the room and watch stupid series. I will not cancel an approved request because I know how shitty that is, but it could be that we end up barely hanging out, nothing personal!
FOURTH: Include the word "pimpampum" at the beginning of your message, if not I will decline without explanation.
FIFTH: Both me and my flatmate are vegan, and our kitchen is free of animal products, so we would appreciate if you can adapt while here. :)

ABOUT ME

I was born in Peru and lived there until I was 20. Then I moved to Europe and, honestly, I do not think I will move out in the next few years. You never know, but that is how i feel right now.

I would say that I'm constantly trying to be more open-minded and tolerant. I enjoy learning from other people and I often feel amazed by the diversity of backgrounds, beliefs, paths, and lives out there.

I am doing a PhD in Molecular Pharmacology in Amsterdam, and here is where I will stay for the next couple of years. I thought it would be harder to commit to stay in one place for a couple of years, but I enjoy my life here so much that there is no other place where I want to be at the moment. Although... it has been less than 2 years, let's see how I feel when I am done. :P

I have to add that I have been a vegan for some years, and it has been the single best decision I have ever made in my short life. It changed my entire way to see the world and made me much more conscious and responsible of my actions, attitudes, lifestyle and everything. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Do not do to others what you would not want others to do to you.
