About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make great friends and bring joy to their lives, to laugh my heart out, to see the world, to fall in love, to have fun, to learn. Soy las ganas de vivir, las ganas de cruzar, las ganas de conocer lo que hay después del mar.

ABOUT ME

I love art and I love science. I wish I could have more than one life to fulfill all of my calls! I've been studying dancing (ballet, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, etc) since I was a child. Also drama and singing. I've done ice figure skating for several years and now I do silk acrobatics. I am finishing my studies in physics which is also something I profoundly enjoy. Everyday in the lab (or at least most of them!) I'm happy with what I do. My biggest treasure in life are my loved ones, I feel I have the greatest friends of all! I would love to see as much as I can from the world in my life and I hope CS helps me do that!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short so: break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love deeply, laugh your heart out, don't hold grudges and never forget to be happy.

“And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.” ― Roald Dahl

'I loved it when my father got himself worked up like this. Listening to him during those early years, I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good, either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be.'

Roald Dahl

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Harvest rice with filipino women in Palawan, bath an elephant in the middle of a river in Thailand, play music and sing around the fire in the middle of the Sahara dessert, watch the aurora borealis in Iceland while drinking hot tea with wonderful friends, hike the Great Wall of China with my partner and a great Chinese friend. It's impossible to choose only one thing. I am grateful with life and people for having so many amazing memories in my heart.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like cooking very much! I cook lots of different dishes: from typical Argentinian food to Italian, Indian and Thai. I also found in Austria that aerial silk acrobatics is not common here (it is now in Argentina) and I would be happy to teach anybody who wants to learn. It's a great sensation to be entangled in the air and then let yourself fall!
