Bio

Spanish born and bread. I've spent a big part of my life between Spain and England and the other parts of the world. From remote villages in Indonesia to the beaches of Miami, the streets of Lagos (Nigeria) or the Norwegian fjords. Ex-ballerina, Muay Thaier. I love sports, punk, steaks, New York & people with something intelligent to say. Not necessarily in that order.

I'm passionate about

The social aspects of travel, being introduced to other cultures. They say 93 per cent of our communication is nonverbal. You really don't need to be fluent in a language to make yourself understood. That is the beauty of human beings.

An idea worth spreading

We have to continually be jumping off cliffs and developing our wings on the way down.

Areas of expertise
