Overview
About Me
¡Hola!
Hi! I'm Leticia from Mostazal (a small town in the countryside), Chile and currently traveling in Asia.
My major is Applied Linguistics to English-Japanese-Spanish Translation, nevertheless I work as a private tutor now.
Traveling is one of the most valuable and enriching life experiences I've ever had and hope that everyone could have the chance to do it at least once in life. Unfortunately, this seems unlikely to happen soon.
Being away from my beloved ones, stepping out of my comfort zone, enjoying daily life and chores, meeting locals and listening to their stories and opinions have helped me to leave prejudices behind, look beyond the boundaries, and learn more about myself and how I can make an impact on my community.
In the near future, I'd like to lead a slow life by living in a little farm, which allows me to grow organic vegetables and fruits.
I love hiking, dancing (Chilean traditional dances as well), cycling, reading, walking without a plan, watching movies, teaching culture, origami, tea and food made with love.
