About Me

IG: @carlosnomadic

Hola! I'm a Spanish/Brazilian guy and I've been travelling my whole life. I was born in Japan and I've lived in Brazil, United States, Argentina, China and now Spain. I've been in Barcelona for several years and I love meeting new people, going to new places and trying new things! I consider myself a very happy and positive person, always open to new experiences and am also a bit silly, so don't take me too seriously :)

I don't collect material objects, I collect moments, experiences and people :)

My mission in life is to have a positive impact on as many people as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to show my home city of Barcelona as a local, to any travelers stopping by :) Feel free to message me if you'd like to meet up!

Interests

I'm infinitely curious, so I'm always trying out new things, I believe every person can teach you something. Which is another reason why I'm on Couchsurfing, I love diversity and learning as much as I can from different cultures.

Currently, my most prominent interests are the ones listed below (latin dancing, swimming, photography, cooking, hiking and playing the guitar). However, along with these I'm always discovering something new that I enjoy!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a very open-minded person, so I enjoy almost any kind of music! Some favourites: Dead Can Dance, George Gershwin, Pink Floyd, Galt MacDermot, Kygo, Buddha Bar compilations, Muse, Kasabian, Portishead, The Black Keys, Tchaikovsky, Buena Vista Social Club, Paco de Lucía, Deadmau5, Damien Rice, The Hush Sound, Oceanlab, Iron & Wine, Metallica, Chopin, The xx, alt-J, The Weeknd and many more.

Christopher Nolan is my favourite movie director, my favourite movies of his are Inception and Interstellar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went around the island of Menorca by kayak in 11 days, sleeping on a different beach each night.

Hitch-hiked on top of an iron ore cargo train through the middle of the desert in Mauritania.

Lived with a hill tribe in the Shan State, Myanmar but had to leave because of a conflict between tribes.

Camped under the northern lights in Iceland and got woken up in the morning by a reindeer
