About Me

I am a Basque backpacker in love with Irish and Scottish culture. I've been travelling Scotland for 2 months, and I've volunteered in a couple of places, too.
I am socially aware, and I am really committed to treating everyone equally.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it is a great way to know new people while travelling. It also allows you to know the places you visit from a locals perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mainly listen to female artists. Some of my favourite current artists: Amanda Palmer, Florence and the Machine, Beth Ditto... But also Beyoncé, Pink, Anitta, Little Mix (yes, LM!). I love dancing, too.

I love all kinds of movies... campy ones (Rocky Horror Picture Show), the ones that have an important message (Even the rain), a good old musical (Cabaret), and so on. I really like Xavier Dolan as a director.

Books: Harry Potter! Always and forever, ha. 1984, Babilonia (in Basque), King Kong Theory... the list could go on and on.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This trip that I'm doing right now is being quite an experience, to be honest. I've been able to see so many aspects and layers of Scottish culture, which has made me think about my own culture and roots, too. Now, I would love to know about Irish culture and people, too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love different cultures. Us, Basque people, have a pretty unique culture. Our language is one of the oldest in Europe, and we have our own festivities, traditional dances, etc. I would like to know more about Irish culture, its history, language...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very open-minded and friendly person. I love to know different people that come from different backgrounds than mine. If you fancy, I am always down for a coffe (or beer, he) and a chat.
I am also very responsible, clean and neat.

Countries I’ve Visited

Czech Republic, England, France, Italy, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, United States
