One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I allowed myself to start solo trips back in 2012.
Since then, I have been having the most incredible cultural exchange experiences.
In special, my 9 Months Aiesec program where I had the opportunity to learn from Muslim culture while live with local families and sharing my english knowledge in Indonesia. I´m so grateful for this world connection!

Teach, Learn, Share

"Everything will be a little weird, a bit challenging, different than what you had imagined, manageble. And that´s ok."

What I Can Share with Hosts

Organized, outgoing, talkative, enthusiastic about life and people. I believe everything happens for a reason and this belief inspires me to find the positive side of every challenging situation.

I also believe empathy has the power to change the world so don´t matter in which culture I will be insert in, the sense of respect for others will always drive me.
