I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I'm a shy but eclectic, creative and adventurous person. I experimented a bunch of different things in my life. I have traveled and camped a good deal around my country and our neighboring ones. I've lived 6 years in Brazil, 5 of them in a rural, subtropical forest region where I've learned to plant, to build a house, to care for a garden, nature and all the lovely beings that surrounded me. One of the best experiences of my life. I really enjoy being in direct, constant contact with nature. So much that I now live in Patagonia, surrounded with breathtaking landscapes, enormous mountains and beautiful forests, studying what I want to do the rest of my life: Agroecology, or "how to exist in this world without destroying it" I love how learning languages had helped me discover amazing new worlds and expand my notion of possibility in this life. I continue to learn every day thanks to it, and so I'm passionate about sharing those treasures with everyone. Being so, I started to work as a self-taught English/Portuguese to Spanish translator in 2013, Last year, a colleague and I have started Rizoma, a translation coop., working mainly on the topics of Agroecology, Permaculture, Social Sciences, Anthropology and Political Philosophy. We work very close to Scholars, Social Movements, non-profits, activists and community organizations, trying to do our part in fostering freedom, ecology, autonomy, community values and empowerment while doing the job we love the most: create bridges, connect people and ideas through translation, making incredible friendships in the process. To start translating TED Talks as a hobby when not working, was just a matter of time... I'm glad I've found this community.

Agroecology (so Ecology, plants), Permaculture, music, Anthropology, Science in general, hiking, camping, Science Fiction, sharing with people and together dream and create new worlds inside of this one.

Always do the right thing. If you don't what that is, just listen...

I've watched a bunch of good ones... To start translating TED Talks as a hobby when not working, was just a matter of time.,, I'm glad I've found this community.

Handcrafts, problem-solving, solution-making, caring, observation, patience, book-making, cooking incredible meals when there's almost nothing in the fridge, doing a dozens things at a time, doing nothing at all...
