About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Cross India in a Royal Enfield motorbike

ABOUT ME

Am an Spanish freelance journalist based in Madrid. I love music (am also a musician), cinema, traveling, books, vintage guitars and amps (which I collect), vintage motorbikes (I drive one every single day)...
I guess I am just a person with a lot of questions and a few anwsers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We're renting this life. I wanna make mine worthy.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This thing is nice, far from be an exact science..
Internet let interesting people knock to your door. It's magical.

First time, I thought that I was about to give something to another, then, I realized that I was the feted one.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This summer I was backpacking US and Mexico for three months using CS. It was magical. If as humans, we do have any kind of future, that's the hospitality, the fact of collide with someone at his/her place and mind...

What I Can Share with Hosts
