About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn about everything life brings us and try my best to make people happy

ABOUT ME

I am from Mataro (Catalonia, in Spain). Always busy thinking of my next project and how to improve things that surround us... I did a round-the-world trip and I hosted and guided so many new travellers after my trip. Now, 15 years after that, I am a mom of 3 amazing children, and we are all willing to share good experiences with travelers visiting Catalonia (we will try to be as good as the great hosts I had on my trips).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

WHY I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

After a Round the World trip I am ready and happy to have a coffee and show Barcelona to all surfers that will be visiting Barcelona.
I live 30 minutes from downtown, so I am always happy to go and walk around those nice and busy streets.
If you have kids, my family and I will guide you around to do fun and interesting activities with your family.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have done couch surfing as a surfer in Australia and New Zealand. I have met nice people and, for sure, I will do it again in my next travels.

Interests

I love travelling. There is a lot to see in this great world. Let's see it!
I like hiking and swimming in the sea after the sunrise.
I enjoy teaching from maths to languages, from kids to elderly people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am currently teaching English, maths and, economy in a secondary local school.
I love painting and I would love to learn more and more... I have to admit that I am not very good at it. Is anyone interested in going around Barcelona to paint/draw?
