    Travelling

  • Description

    The journey that changed my life began in India: a backpack, a few coins, and a dream — to learn from the masters and become one myself. I spent two months living on the banks of the Ganges, opening my heart to the universe. From that moment on, everything shifted.
    I continued my path to Kathmandu, where I began writing books to share my experiences and inspire others. Since then, I’ve been teaching meditation, yoga, mindfulness, Reiki, and shamanic practices — blending deep listening with spiritual connection.
    In Scotland, I spent two weeks immersed in wild nature, again with just a backpack and a few essentials, where I completed my third book. In Peru, I joined a volunteer program teaching meditation and yoga to children, leading classes for women, and supporting survivors of domestic violence.
    This is what drives me: traveling, embracing the world, sharing my journey through books and podcasts, learning and teaching. Helping people is my mission — it’s how I live.

  • More details about your skills

    I speak fluent English and Spanish. Over the past year, I’ve worked as a supervisor, leading classes of more than 50 people — developing strong leadership, listening, and group facilitation skills.
    I’m a writer and holistic teacher. In addition to meditation, yoga, and mindfulness, I practice and teach crystal healing, artherapy, hypnosis, yoga nidra, kundalini, sacred dance, herbalism, and divination. Each practice is a tool for transformation and deep connection.
    I have experience in volunteering, teaching, emotional and spiritual support, and I’m always ready to adapt, learn, and contribute with heart and skill.
