About Me

Well, I can't describe myself but, as I like meeting with easy-going and simple people, I guess I must be similar.

While travelling I enjoy knowing local people, learning history, understanding their lifestyles, and sharing experiences either in their place or while travelling. I love outdoor sports, all of them if the happen on a mountain, river, canyon, valley, cave and so on.

Apart from enjoying nature, landscapes, views, monuments and history, the main motivation for me to travel is to continue meeting people, learning more about how different life is depending on the local culture, but how similar we are inside.

Experiences? There is no better feeling than that thing you feel when you are in those special places, those that you know will remain in your mind, but you won't be able to describe when you talk about them. The same with those people who make you feel confident from the first moment you see them, and whom time flies while talking with.

During my everyday life, I am an railway engineer, currently based in between Cardiff (Wales - UK) and Bristol (England - UK), but originally from Andalucía (Spain) and backpacking around every single time I have the opportunity to.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
