ABOUT ME

I’m Chilean and have lived in Santiago the most of my life. I love my city but every now and then I feel a strong need for travelling. I´m a sociologist and have worked in NGOs with children and young people living in poverty. I’m friendly, open minded, enthusiastic, independent and I also love travelling, visiting new places, and getting to know different cultures from all over the world.

PHILOSOPHY

To enjoy and try to have fun every day.
TV out of the bedroom!
