About Me

CURRENT MISSION

“To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face, and to know it for what it is...at last, to love it for what it is, and then, to put it away...” Virginia Woolf

ABOUT ME

Hello you, new reader of what I have to put about my self on this little square.
I think on this 10 years in CS is the 5th time I'm changing this. This time I'm using English, witch means a lot. But may be not for you...
Ok, I think I'm in general terms a happy, easy going and smiley someone, may be cause sadness takes too much energy and I don't understand or prefer the idea of staying in that position for long time, and may be because I love feeling other people happiness, and you know its contagious! People in general activates me in a positive way, and that's one of the reasons I love shared houses, communities, carpooling, CS and all that stuff. I'm a dreamer, and I really believe there is hope in this crazy world. As a psychologist I'm a believer in human singularity and the power to accept and/or reinvent our self. And as an actress pretty much the same.

About Juan (because we travel/live together most of the times) Juan is my partner on this path, we call life. We found each other 7 years ago and we been thought a lot together always getting stronger, always trying to learn more and more whats the best for us. Juan is magical, he has this power of being one of the nicest persons you will know, he takes care, he is super open minded, he LOVEs music, science, geek stuff. He is funny and adventurous, and he loves giving, never thinking on what he could receive in exchange.

PHILOSOPHY

Life, and sometimes health, is an exception, a glorious gift from a random destiny, I believe that we have to live with the intensity and with the joy that this idea claim, always thinking on our self as a interconnected being with a sort of free will.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have lough out loud, cried by emotion, received for ever hugs, warm words in all types of languages, I have heard impossible experiences and the most beautiful thoughts about simple things, I have been follen in love, I have been angry, and fascinated. CS is a mirror that show us how we are through others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Me he reido a carcajadas, he llorado de emoción, he recibido abrazos eternos, palabras de aliento en idiomas inimaginables, he escuchado anécdotas imposibles y pensamientos bellos sobre cosas simples, me he enamorado, me he fascinado. Couch-surfing es un hermoso espejo que nos muestra quienes somos a través los otros.
