Hi! I'm a 28 years old anthropologist from Guadalajara, Mexico, currently studying an Erasmus Master in Museums and Heritage Education in Glasgow, Scotland.

I am very friendly and sociable, but also super calm and respectful of personal spaces. I enjoy meditating and just being present, also love to spend quality time with friends and loved ones. I'm driven by intuition, a warm heart and great curiosity so I have a lot of different interests, here are some of them:

I enjoy cooking but mostly, I love the feeling of sharing with people the things I cook, and sitting on a table to share food, new recipees from all over the world and our thoughts, big philosophies and little small details of everyday life. I think there is a great alchemy on there.

I'm an outdoors lover, but mostly an explorer, you'll find me hiking and discovering the particularities of nature in every new place I go, doing long walks and wandering the corners of every new city I live in.

I love dancing and also climbing, so last year I got myself into the beautiful art of aerial silks, besides that,
I do yoga since I was a teenage and study daoist philosophy. In my free times, I also enjoy crocheting, reading and watching great cinema. There is time for everything :)

Astrology has been my lifelong passion, I've also been studying it for about a decade, and doing birth chart readings proffesionally for like 4 years now.

As I said before, I'm an anthropologist and I've been working on digital communications for about 3 years in a research center of the University of Guadalajara and volunteering for the University of Guadalajara Foundation and the Smithsonian Institution in DC. Recently I got an Erasmus Mundus to pursue the Master of Education in Museums and Cultural Heritage, coordinated by the University of Glasgow, so I will be traveling all over Europe for the next two years. I'm very excited!
