Hi everyone! I'm Sole, a solo traveller who's been on the road for a few years. I love nature, specially when water is involved (ocean, sea, lakes, waterfalls), animals, live music and jamming sessions, even though I only play the egg shaker but like a pro, and obviously nice people around to have deep conversations and also silly ones. I'm easy going, positive and have infinite curiosity. I'm currently travelling in Mexico and it would be amazing to meet people who live here and can maybe show me around, share a couch or point in the direction of interesting events.
