I will be traveling all of November, so I'm not accepting guests now. Sorry!

I was born in Spain, but I am of Chinese ancestry. I've lived in the United States for almost 10 years, studying and then working there (in the Boston area), but I call Madrid my home city and are happy to be located here now. I studied economics and worked in the consulting world for a few years, but I then decided to move back to Spain to set up a small business of my own to have more independence.

I consider myself a very easy going and open-minded person, always open to learn and to have new experiences. It's difficult for me to say "no" to a new experience, and I usually don't have any regrets!

I have been practicing yoga, chikung, and meditation for several years, and I recognize the importance of taking a step back to appreciate the beauty of life.

At the same time, I don't pull back from the opportunities to enjoy the pleasures of modern life: fine food and wine, movies, technology, travel, psytrance festivals...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

My first time Couchsurfing was during a trip to Iran, where I had some amazing experiences meeting, staying, and learning from locals. As much as I had traveled previously, Couchsurfing really took traveling to a higher level and made me go beyond the superficial sightseeing tourist experience

Back home, I have hosted quite a few people, with whom I have had some great experiences. I have established a strong connection with some of guests and I have made friendships that I hope will last a long time.

兴趣

Traveling (of course!), hiking (getting back in touch with nature, have been a city person for too long), dancing, electronic music (psytrance, and others), yoga, chikung, meditation, photography, trying new food (the second best thing about traveling), scuba diving, psychonautics...

I love to cook and have friends over for dinner. I think that the best thing about food and wine are the social interactions that come along with them. At the same time I am also helping to cook food for a community organization that distributes meals to those in need in central Madrid.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I try to always be true to myself, go with the flow, and face all situations with a smile! I am not there yet, and don't know whether I will ever get there, but I try to enjoy the road, since this is where I am now!

教，学，和分享

When traveling, I am happy to cook some Spanish dishes for my hosts, and to teach them some Spanish. Conversely, I will also be very happy to savor some tasty dishes cooked by my guests!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I work from home, but I usually have free time to show you around, and certainly to go out to have a tea or a drink with you. I can even get you in for free to the Reina Sofia Museum, since I get complimentary entrance tickets.
