About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to find my next chapter in life. Still travelling as much as I can and enjoying and having fun wether possible!

ABOUT ME

I grow up in Barcelona but have been living in the UK for the last years.
I quite enjoy some peaceful moments at home, but love going out and socialise as well. I love cooking for myself and my friends and it is also a good way to know other cultures. I love travelling around visiting my friends in other countries and learning about the world through them. Getting a true taste of a foreign culture is much easier through a native.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to learn what I want from life...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really like the spirit of Couchsurfing. When I first knew about it I thought it matches exactly the way I like traveling to new places.
Unfortunately I can't host at the moment, but I am determined to start hosting again when possible.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started hosting people at my place in Barcelona. Loved it! It was a great way of breaking the routine and having a bit of the traveling mood.
Lately I have been using it when traveling, not only to look for a place to stay, but to get in touch with locals and/or travelers, which has been always an absolute success.

Interests

I'm interested in a wide range of things: from good cafés and restaurants, pubs/clubs to walking around, visiting museums and discovering new places (sometimes from my own city).
I enjoy new adventures and travelling and meeting new people with whom I can learn and benefit from a new perspective in life.
