About Me

One does not became enlighted by imagine figures of light, but by making the darkness concious

Interests

I'm an ART lover.
Music, cinematography, painting, photography, design of any kind... I need that type of stimulation and beauty in my daily life. Going to concerts or shows with friends, give myself some time to sketch or paint, see what's new on fashion or arquitecture world, go to the theater and watch movies are some of my favourite choices to recharge energy.

FOOD is a big thing for me too, try new things and play with different flavors is super fun and one of the many great things of traveling. Multiple members of my family are cooks or own their own businesses and since I was a little girl I was teach on not to say no to anything without trying it first. Food is a big part of my culture as well and I love to sit down around a table to have nice long conversations while eating delicious plates and nice drinks.

I'm very open to try new things and change environments, not a fan of routine and stillness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing experiences I had was in Galliano island close to Vancouver, when one night I jumped from a dock with a group of friends into the dark freezing water and millions of little blue sparkles started to pop up in the darkness. We felt like magicians, It was the first time I'd ever seen bioluminescence, amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

We can cook some Spanish dishes and cocktails or I can teach you my language.
Video and photography is my go to so I'm open to experiment with that as well, I think that it can be so much fun.

If you play any instruments or do any kind of art or sports I would love to find a way to share that together as well. Livingroom concerts, skateboard, surfing, climbing or painting improv sounds pretty cool!

I have to say as well that I also know how to share a moment of silence or privacy as well, either if you're my host or my surfer, don't feel obligated to get into non desired conversations or activities. It's cool to respect each other spaces as well and I appreciate the honesty.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm very chilled and easy going. I appreciate a lot the act of someone opening the doors of their house in such a kind way so they'll have my full respect towards them and their place.
We can have conversations and exchange experiences and ideas while sharing some drinks/cocktails, cooking some Spanish food or go for some photography walks.
