About Me

I am a Spanish teacher who loves travelling.

Teaching in High school is my passion.

Discovering every inch of the world is another passion.

The third passion are books.

I play guitar and sing to express all sort of feelings.

I need my friends, and I love to meet new ones to come back home and tell the lifelong ones about the great people I met.

I am also a beer lover. And I like red colour. And autumn is my favourite season.

And I think Madrid is quite an awesome city and I could show you around :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've CS twice, in Oslo and Bilbao, both really cool experiences, but some friends made the arrangements. So now that I want to travel on my own, it's my turn!

Interests

Education, Politics, History.

Now I'm working on my MT about emotional intelligence and coaching in class of Language and Literature. I am discovering the world of alternative education and it amazes me. I believe there is a different way in which we can educate, and I want to dedicate my life to it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't spend one day without listening some rock n roll, but I enjoy nearly every kind of music with the exception of techno, hardcore... and all sort of similar music.
Some classics are always welcomed, by the way.

BOOKS. I will always fall in love with LOTR, doesn't matter how many times I read it. That said, i like epic and fantasy, History and mystery. I spend hours reading, and always enjoy a recommendation that discovers some new pages.

Movies, just impossible to choose. (But I don't watch horror movies...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An Erasmus in Lithuania
A 10 days train trip through Ukraine
Work as au pair in Belgium

Meeting people from many different countries and learn to share a life with them.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Spanish! That's my way of living, I adore sharing my culture and language.

Learn: Always willing to learn something new! Culture, history and politics from the country I'm visiting. Some typical meals!

Share: music, singing, a couple of beers, a walk and a talk about the world we live in, about what we love and don't like on it and would want to change and how... A dream!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Do they need help with Spanish language, by any reason? I will be more than happy to lend a hand. And also cooking some meals from my country, if they wish :D

Countries I’ve Visited
