About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Viajar, voluntariado y aprender, siempre aprendiendo. Actualmente viajando por Latinoamérica, todos los meses que pueda!

Travelling, volunteering and learning. Currently I'm travelling in Latinoamerica, long term travel!

ABOUT ME

Es complicado explicar algo sobre ti mismo, mejor descubrirlo.
Podría decir que me definen como tranquila, me gusta leer, el cine, el teatro, senderismo, el rock, ir a los conciertos y salir de bares. Lo mejor es aprender de gente interesante, tratar de escuchar más, dar todo lo que uno pueda. Quizá el propósito en esta vida es tratar de conocerse, buscar el equilibrio con uno mismo y lo que te rodea.

I'm calm, I like reading, going to the cinema, theater, hiking... I love listening rock music, going to gigs and pubs... I'd like to learn things from interesting people, I think life's main aim is to be happy and do things that make you feel balance with yourself and your world, giving from the heart.

PHILOSOPHY

La vida está para disfrutarla y hacer algo bonito por las personas que nos rodean. Todos seguimos nuestro camino pero siempre podemos ayudar (un poco) a lo que vienen a nuestro lado.

Live and let live. I think life is for enjoying it and doing something good for other people around you. Everybody should follow its own path, but we can help the ones who come with us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Empecé siendo hospedada en Irlanda y empecé a ir a actividades en Manchester. Cuando regresé a Madrid, comencé a participar en las actividades que había, a organizar y a hospedar.
Junto con la gran comunidad de Madrid, hemos organizado dos couchcrash en la ciudad (2018 y 2019), un Couchsurfing camp (2019), con otros embajadores de España organizamos una invasión a Zaragoza (2019) y una invasión a Valencia (2021), aparte de eventos cada semana, salidas a la montaña, picnics, comidas compartidas, etc, etc
