Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To prove (not just to myself) that scientists can have fun too!
ABOUT ME
I'm scientist, doing research on solar cells, but don't worry I like to talk about other stuff too! I like it when there are a lot of things going on, anything to get me out of bed. (Although I really do love sleep.) Above all though, I really love having guests! Also, I'm half-Catalan (soc mig catalá!).
PHILOSOPHY
"You gotta write the trip, don't let the trip write you!"
Also: (I know quoting poetry sounds a little pretentious, but this is a good one!)
"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately, I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, To put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die Discover that I had not lived."
- Thoreau
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
We've hosted almost a dozen CouchSurfers at a previous house, and Loved it! I've missed having guests.
Interests
I really enjoy learning new things, but I like it so much I can't seem to stick with anything. I'm reasonably good at climbing, soccer, fire poi, physics, and English comprehension.
- poetry
- rock climbing
- soccer
- physics
- science
Music, Movies, and Books
For the first time in more than a year, I picked up a book to read for pleasure. It's been a thrilling experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can tell you about the nation of Catalunya, and maybe teach a little fire-spinning.
