Overview
About Me
Hi everyone!
I am Belén, I was born in Patagonia Argentina and I am 30 years old.
I lived for two years traveling alone in South America as a backpacker and doing volunteer work in exchange for lodging, also working and selling food on the beaches or towns.
My love for traveling arose when I was four years old, my father traveled with his van through Argentina and it took me a month to travel to all of Patagonia, until I reached Ushuaia and returned, the most beautiful memory I have was to do it even more entertaining, we made a deal! In every town we pass we would look for those game machines where you have to put a token and grab a stuffed toy, we became experts!
Those stuffed animals have a glue and after a time of travel, at dawn my dad woke me up by opening the back door of the van, he would bring me breakfast to the bed that was inside, and from there I could see the mountains and inside, all our stuffed animals hanging around me, glued to the walls and ceiling!
That was my first trip and with the passage of all my childhood and adolescence my parents took me and my siblings on a trip or two a year of four, five months by car through different countries. they really like to travel by land!
Their phobia of the plane helped us to travel by land km by km and stop to eat and sleep in local places and thus know their people and culture much better.
I travel because I like to challenge my structures, my prejudices and my limits, because I love learning languages, and that every day is different from the previous one!
The activities that make me feel the best are yoga, reading books, taking pictures and filming, and my art (you can check on Instagram @botanicalma_ )
I am vegetarian, I feel very comfortable in nature and have a deep adoration for animals, advocacy and activism for them.
My first long trip alone, was in 2015 I left Argentina by land to Bolivia, Peru and Brazil, it was almost two incredible years where I met many types of people and lived unique experiences,
my biggest challenges are hitchhiking across Europe, looooong couchsurfing and dumpster diving!
things not impossible but difficult in my country.
I am currently in Buenos Aires, Argentina, waiting for my new trip this summer!

What I Can Share with Hosts
I am an artist and I work from my own home, so I can manage my schedule and spend time together if we want to! Sometimes I have to work a lot in my day to day so I can't commit 100% to accompany you on your walks but on many occasions! I have a comfortable and central home, very comfortable, you will have your own room, kitchen, bathroom and a very chubby puppy! (forbidden to feed him, he's on a diet! ahahah)
