Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm quite new in Madrid myself but wil gladly share some drinks or food or show you around as good as I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, only great and exciting encounters!

Interests

Outdoors sports and aquatic sports like sailing and rowing.

I love to take road trips, hitchhike and travel solo. In 2012-2013 I made a big round the world trip, and I feel blessed to have met so many interesting, hospitable and cool people. Looking forward to pass on what I received, to other people on the road!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music; I love it! Indie, jazz, lounge are alltime favourites. Movies; intelligent or twisted movies that leave you thinking, like Into the Wild, Cidade de Deus, Pulp fiction, Fight Club, Amelie etc. For easy sunday mornings I also dig animation movies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My visit to the rock-hewn church Abuna Yemata Guh in Ethiopia; a great spiritual and cultural rock climbing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Life is about learning, so I'm always open to sharing and learning new skills, like languages for example.

Wanna talk work? I'm a public health specialist that graduated on innovation in healthcare and I currently own, and live of, some healthcare related websites.
