About Me

Hi! I come originally from Spain but I've worked and lived abroad for the past 25 years. Since 2016 I've changed career paths to me more aligned with my values. I no longer work as a consultant in a big company, instead I accompany women throughout their entire motherhood (including birth). I'm also a qualified massage therapist and I'm fascinated by creating significant human interactions... Having a cup of coffee and a chat with a good friend or even a total stranger can save lives ❤️‍🔥

Solo travel experience

I traveled to Belgium for 5 days. Visited Brussels, Bruges, and Ghent. It was simply magical. I highly recommend Belgium as it is safe, central to so many places in Europe, and since it is such a small country, it's easy to get around.

Solo travel experience

Belgium is a gorgeous country with so many amazing places to see. Brussels is stunning with so many interesting places to see, gorgeous architecture, museums, etc. Antwerp is also amazing and has a very different feel to it than Brussels. Lots of forward-thinking designers are from there. Ghent is spectacular and Brugge very pretty. If you’re into WWI history, lots to see in Ypres and Flanders.
