About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living simple, mixing with the human kind, sharing moments and enjoying being happy.

ABOUT ME
Relocated back home after spending + 10 years living in the UK and in Ireland and trotting around.
Living in a lovely small neighbourhood nearby the beach, in Valencia. At the moment I cannot host but I can hang out and share a meal together with travellers, at mine or in town, speak about our cultures, do language exchange and visit the city.
