About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Right here, right now.

ABOUT ME

I used to live in Madrid. I'm currently traveling for a few months in East Asia.

PHILOSOPHY

Be good to yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

CSing is just great. Good people sharing very good and honest small actions.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed in NYC with perhaps the most noble person in the city, I never got to see him but I deeply thank him the chance he gave me to stay in his flat. After that first CSing experience everything else has been just great. I've made lots of friends thanks to CSing. Now I feel it's time to give something back! My flat is really small, but I'm happy to host you if you feel this is not a problem.

Interests

Political science, soul music, dancing, reading. I try to practice yoga & meditation everyday.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
