About Me

Hello everyone!

The most scary and amazing feeling I ever felt is facing uncertainty, when you open up your life to spontaneity, anything could happen. Thats the magic of backpacker's life.

Lately, this became my partner Christian's and myself's profile, because we are living a nomad life together. We are very interested in seeing other people's lifestyle, we are always wondering how life is on the other side of the world, what does people eat, who they fight with. We need to travel slow to see this.

Eight years ago I changed my life to a nomad one. I live travelling and even if I am staying many months in the same place I feel it part of the journey. I make money working on different places to keep me on the way, experincing what to be an stranger means, sometimes doing hospitality and sometimes learning from jobs out of my comfort zone. I think we all deserve this expat experience in order to understand what home means and develop the empathy.

Currently, on a working holiday visa in Australia.

We enjoy spending our time with thankful, flexible, humble and openminded people. We are very interested in everyday people's life, their customs, their gastronomy and spirituality. We are vey curious and we love to taste new food from around the world, i always try to cook with our hosts or surfers, or learn new recipes from them.

I am and amateur writer and a reader, I am a feminist, a ocean lover and a karma believer. I love taking photos but i am not that good, it will be great to learn more. I practice yoga, and i am trying to learn to surf. I speak properly spanish and i am able to teach it as well, i studied italian at school and improved my english travelling. I always try to know a few kind words from the country i gonna visit.

I want to open my mind to new people and other stories and other lifes. Our society teach us that the world is too big and dangerous but i have seen with my own eyes that the world is a beautiful place.

SOMETHING INCREDIBLE I HAVE DONE:

Hitchiking in almost every country I have beed
Couchsurfing with polygamy family in Malaysia
Swimming with whale sharks in the Philippines
Roatripping and sleeping in the car in New Zealand
Climbing Mount Yasur, and active volcano in Vanuatu
Volunteering in a Buddhist monastery in Myanmar
Sleeping on the beach on Formentera

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

For me, open the door to a stranger and embrace diversity is a revolutionary act.
In this world, doing something expecting nothing in return is against the system and that is beautiful.
I had really nices couchsurfing experiences, sharing the life, learning how big is the world.
We have hosted, have surfed and participarted on cs events.
