Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To know and enjoy most as I can of the world and my life. Be happy and make others happy.
ABOUT ME
I'm studying my PhD in physics. But appart from that I'm a friendly person (sometimes a little shy), a very curious girl who are always wondering something. I'm an awake dreamer!. I have a lot of energy, and enthusiasm about living my life, and making the things I enjoy. I must confess sometimes I'm a little bit workoholic (that means I spend lots of time working/studying at school or at home) but that isn't an impediment to have very good laugh when I have free time.
PHILOSOPHY
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
It is normally believe that, when you travel abroad, you can stay safety with your relatives, so the couchsurfing experience means for me that we're all part of the same family, a world family!. I want to participate being part of this family, not just avoiding hotels, but meeting my relatives in all the world, and invite them to my place too.

Interests
I love to discover interesting people, places, facts, songs, points of view, philosophies, how the universe works..., and I like to share with others all this things. I love music, listen and sometimes playing something. I'm worried about the global warming, and I'm trying to be a green person. I like to learn languages, solve puzzles, walking in nature, read in english and spanish (general literature from fantasy to poetry, and science books), dream. I love the nature and enjoy to be free. And of course I love physics. I like to observe the world around me(from it's people to the physical facts). I love to be with the people that I love. I love dancing too, from salsa to rock and roll! I love to travel and discover the world and its people, cultures, languages, wonders, nature...

Teach, Learn, Share
There's no rigid things someone can teach, sometimes you know more than you can imagine and it's when you share with others that you realize how much you can share. In a similar way I'm open to learn everything, knowledge and experiences they're the only things that accompanies you through the rest of your life no matter where you are, where you come from or where you'll go.
