Travelling has been always my passion, when I finished Uni back in 2012 in Bilbao, I moved to the UK for 6 months experience but I ended up staying more than 5 years, with a year in between in Italy. Living in places like London has helped me travel very easily to anywhere that I wanted.
This past three years I traveled more than ever, trying to “escape” a job that I didn’t enjoy and a very stressful lifestyle, always with my camera beside me. I realised that I don’t need to keep doing a job that made me miserable or live in a big city, I can choose!
I found Yoga back in 2010, but I wasn’t truly ready for it. I went back into it 4 years later feeling the benefits but keep falling of the wagon, not being very consistently till 2 years ago when I finally understood the benefits on my body and mind. It became a necessity to practice, relieving all the stress and unhappiness of my lifestyle, made my feel very calm. I left those classes feeling a completely different person and the most important, feeling like myself again.
Last autumn I decided to quit my job and fly to India for a few months, backpacking that beautiful country and becoming a Yoga teacher. That’s when I realised of how unhappy I was and how little a need to be truly happy and stress free. It was such a revelation and the best months of my life!
Now, I want to combine my two passions follow what truly makes me happy inspiring others a long the way. Keep exploring the world, living in different countries and cities while I teach yoga and the most important keep smiling and laughing.
