Hi everyone! I'm Alejandro from Sevilla. I'm just a random Spanish guy who has traveled around Europe and Asia, and still wants to travel more and meet even more people.

Everything started when I did my Erasmus in Bordeaux where I met amazing people and started to feel attracted to the idea of traveling as much as possible.

Since then, I moved to ASIA and I stayed there living and working for around 7 years.

- One year in Mumbai (INDIA)
- Six months in Phuket (THAILAND)
- Three years in Bali (INDONESIA)
- Three years in Hokkaido/Ishigaki (JAPAN)

My favorite thing in life is traveling. I have traveled to 26 countries in total so far (yeah I know, just a few) and I hope to visit more in the coming months and years. I have tried traveling both solo and with friends and can't decide what's better.

I love photography and video making. You can see some of my pictures and get to know me better on my Instagram account:

What’s my current situation? I have recently move back to my beautiful hometown Sevilla for work so now I live here. I love meeting my family and friends but sometimes I miss being around fellow travelers and share experiences and ideas.

If we get to meet I can show you the best spots in Sevilla, bring you to eat to great food at local bars, take photos of you and I am opened to join for day trips around Andalucía.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

"I think that the best way to discover a new place is through the eyes of the locals".

For me this relationship goes in both ways since I'm a local living in Sevilla and I also travel to new places when I have holidays.

In both situations this connection is worth it because it helps the traveler to discover the local culture, interesting facts, hidden gems of the city, best places to eat, things to do and of course there's a chance to develop a friendship that who knows how important it can become.

I've made many friends on this platform by using Hangouts and Hosting and I want to keep making traveler friends :)

Música, películas y libros

Music

It's so difficult to chose Music because I like a lot. For starters I like INDIE, ROCK & OSTs.

If have to mention some top bands I would say Fleet Foxes, Arcade Fire, Kasabian, Glass Animals, Alt-J, Mumford & Sons, Florence+The Machine....etc and many many more!

Movies

Again, it's very hard to chose fav movies. For starters I like these Directors: Tarantino, Woody Allen, Tim Burton, Christopher Nolan, Alfonso Cuarón. And I like (almost) everything from Star Wars, Marvel, Disney & Pixar.

My fav movie of all time is "Big Fish" from Tim Burton. After that Batman trilogy, Inception and Interestellar from Nolan. I absolutely loved the movie Roma from Cuaron....and many more!
