CURRENT MISSION

Take the long way home.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy living and travelling alone, but love meeting people in the process, people from all walks of life, even those I disagree with. I love city life precisely because of the opportunity for both privacy and human adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

I have learned to rely on both serendipity and the kindness of strangers.
Also, occasionally, I'm funk and I'm proud.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed last summer and now I try to host as much as possible given my schedule.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still limited, but excellent. I have both surfed and hosted with great pleasure.

Música, películas y libros

At this exact moment I am listening to 1960s John Coltrane, but I also love Steve Reich, Tom Waits, Miles Davis, Taraf de Haïdouk, Louis Sclavis, Leonard Cohen, Sly Stone, etc.
I am a sucker for contemporary literature (Don Delillo, Colum McCann, Pynchon), and I read quite a lot of essays on politics, economics (not that I understand those fully), urbanism, environment. And let's not forget comic books. I guess for you fellow travellers, I should mostly mention Guy Delisle.
As for movies... Tarkovsky, Coen Brothers, Peter Greenaway, Godard, Scorcese, and so many more.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I don't know about amazing, but I find that, for instance, spending three days on a train and talk to ten different people (never met before or since) for hours can turn out to be quite astonishing.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I would love it if someone could teach me how to cut my own hair properly. I've been doing it for years, and it's still a disaster!
And I can teach you how to make my current culinary obsession : a shrimp curry risotto.
