Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meet so many people as it is possible, traveling or hosting at home. Now I'm just hosting on weekends, Friday to Sunday.
ABOUT ME
I'm a journalist and photographer. I live with my parents, my sister and my little dog. I love reading, traveling and meeting new people. By the way, I like to hear and tell stories. I like when people talk about their experiences and I can ask and know more about their perceptions of life.
PHILOSOPHY
Part of buddhism and part of indigenous. That's why I think you must keep smiling and giving thanks every time you still alive. Being a good human is helping each other and think that this world is a big brotherhood.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Live with a indigenous people was such a wonderful experience in my life. Its changed my point of view and made me a more receptive person. My consciousness was opened to the Universe knowledge.
Teach, Learn, Share
I've learnt some things about indigenous culture, rituals and medicine. This knowledges -I believe- must be shared with everyone who wants to take it with the properly respect of this ancient knowledge deserve. Also, I know how to use Tetrapack boxes to create handmade objects. I learnt to make bracelets from indigenous tribe and if you are able to learn, I can teach you.
I love learning about other cultures and practical skills, tips to travel and about people ways. I'm open to learn what people have to teach and share.
