About Me

Since 2002 I have been moving around either for studies, work or holidays. I work with refugees and therefore for the past few years I have been moving around different contexts /countries, some easy and nice, some challenging, but all of them totally worth experiencing.

Although now i am supposed to be based in Spain, i do not manage to spend two months straight there......

I consider myself a down to earth person, I take it easy and look for the positive angle from each situation. I try to appreciate the things life brings on my path.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people, learn and share experiences, get to know places from a different angle rather than seeing monuments and hotel rooms. The world is full of good and worth knowing people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love sci-fiction, but I am open to read any good book people would recommend me. If I have to pick, I always end with a space opera in my hands.

Although I have not done it for a while now, I really enjoy documentaries about the universe. It is indeed a big place..... My favorite is The universe series, from the BBC, a bit old not but still amazing!!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving in the deadsea was nice. Walking on a glazier in New Zealand or swimming with sharkwales in the Philippines are cool things too. But the best thing is having a big brunch with good company, eat, talk and ejoy the day. Luckily, i get to do that very often :) so if we get to cross our paths, lets organize a good home made meal :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am good at Spanish ( my mother tongue) so if you are interested, learning or just curious about it.....I am sure I can be of some help.
i enjoy cooking, i can always teach you who to prepare some of the Spanish classics

What I Can Share with Hosts

My time , positive attitude and good will. if you need any help, feel free to ask.
