About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life

ABOUT ME

Outgoing, with lots of energy and eager to get to know the whole world if it's possible. I love to read, listen to music, write, and play sports, such as volleyball, football and badminton. I'm chilean, but also croatian, so there's a nice culture mix in this human being. My father is a farmer, so I have worked in farm labours since I was little. I adore nature and cats, and to be honest, life itself.

PHILOSOPHY

Stop talking, start doing

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted only once (and had a great time btw), but I've been a surfer in Dublin, Amsterdam, Pamplona x2, Paris x2, Nice, Oslo, Segovia, Zanzibar, Arusha (Tanzania), Burgos and Chile Chico, and I had great experiences in all of them!!

Interests

I love nature, so I really enjoy going hiking or just spending time doing different things surrounded by it. The greatest moments of my life have occurred while hanging out with my friends and family, playing sports, reading (yes! reading. How wonderful is to discover your own feelings in words written by others), or even listening to music. I find joy in simple things, and I hope that never change

Music, Movies, and Books

In relation to music, I like almost everything (from Frank Sinatra to Nightwish). I enjoy listening to almost any kind of music, it keeps me alive.
I also enjoy watching movies and reading books, but I've watched and read so many that is hard to be able to pick one or two!

Book recommendation: Memorias de un investigador privado, José Antonio Marina

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My road trip around Scotland, amazing. Rock step climbing at 5 am to watch the sunrise in Machu Picchu. Drinking beer several times next to the Seine...priceless. Being above Skógafoss Waterfall in Iceland and finally understand the power and incredible beauty of water.

To be honest, I've loved every single trip I've had in my life, it's impossible for me not to enjoy while discovering new places and cultures. Nature and people marvel me
