About Me

Currently on a 9 month trip around latin america and asia!:)
Born and raised in Barcelona, Spain, I have been moving around the world working and traveling for 10 years now.
I'm a curious explorer that likes to get lost in new places. I'm honest, open-minded, easy to talk to and happy person that likes nothing more than constant change and contrasts. I enjoy meeting new people... those who knows me say I am kind, loving, fun and trust worthy person. Sharing meals with strangers that quickly become friends, talking about music and what places I should visit next are my favourite things to do.
I believe in collecting experience that make me grow and meeting people that push me to get out of my comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have started using Couchsurfing only a few months ago when I started traveling with a friend around latin america. So far, we have been been meeting great people in Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia and Ecuador- next destinations are Peru, Chile, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Camboya and Laos. It is a great opportunity to meet local people, meet expats living in other countries with interesting backgrounds, learn new abilities, exchange travel experiences, have fun and share memories.
The more I use it the more I think it is a way of living and traveling- you experience your trip to the fullest.
Couchsurfing gives me hope in human race :) I have only met people that are kindhearted, friendly, thoughtful and loving.
