WHO AM I! People used to define me sociable, open-minded, organized and a serial smiler 😁 I love sports, from CrossFit to yoga, sup, surf, Pilates and whatever keeps me active and in contact with my deepest part. I believe nature is our strongest healer and I need to be submerged from uncontaminated environments as much as I can 🌴 My way of traveling is pretty flexible and I always try to listen to the group needs; strict programs and schedules are not expected on my trips, as I share a slow traveling philosophy. WHAT DOES IT MEAN? It means following the flow of any enjoyable moment and appreciate the feelings you are experiencing in every instant. Tasting the fresh food & wine typical of the region, joining the traditions and events, and mixing with the local communities. Our routinely lives are already too rigid, and traveling for me is also to avoid that stress and collect positive energies.
