About Me

Hey! 😁

I'm from Barcelona (Spain), but live in Norway for 3 years. I am based right now in Oslo.
For many it is a sad and dark, distant country. For me it is the door to adventure. I have never had such a connection with nature as the one I have had here.
I am not the fittest person in the world, but I do not stop visiting "all the corners" that this country hides.

Even so, I don't feel like a citizen of any specific place, but of the whole world.

Talking about myself, I am a dreamy girl and full of concerns. I like to live each moment passionately. What is life without emotions? I would define me also as an active person, positive, curious and open-minded.

I haven't found "my gift" in life yet, so I keep trying to learn as much as I can. It really all seems fascinating to me.

Since before I had the opportunity to travel and live abroad, my main motivation has always been to travel and discover the world. My dream is to visit as many countries as I can in the world and meet the people who live there. At the moment I have not found anything that makes me as happy as sharing good times with good people. It doesn't matter where they are from, what language they speak, how old they are... there is always an opportunity to let a beautiful connection emerge.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Live in Kirkenes for a year and experience all the seasons of the year.
Kirkenes is at one of the highest points in Norway.
During the winter I experienced two months of darkness (Mørketid) but with a sky illuminated by northern lights. During the summer, two months full of light with the sun illuminating throughout the night (Midnattssol).

I have lived for two months in a Quechua village in the middle of the Amazon jungle of Ecuador.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can advise on the best places to visit in Oslo and throughout Norway. (Excursions in the mountains, villages, lakes, restaurants...)

Last year I learned to alpine ski. If you want to start learning, I can share all the advice they gave me.
Same with cross-country skiing.
I'm not an expert, but it's fun to go with me. You will see many funny falls.

We can also go trekking in the mountains, a paddle surf route, a walk through the city, take a few beers or wines, go dancing...

I'm a little scared but I'm in for everything.
