About Me

I'm Spanish but I grew up in Brussels (Belgium). When I finished High school, I moved to Brighton in the UK where I did my higher education and I then worked as a web developer in London. After that I moved to France where I opened my company with some friends and hence I now live in Montpellier at the south of France.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing both surfinf and hosting.

When I believe in the true local experience without all that tourist trap. I would like to be shown a place the same way I perceive mine, when I go visit a place I would like to see it as how someone that lives there sees it not as how a tourist guide is paid for showing or not knowing where you are going, internet is very misinforming too.

When I host, I love showing someone around the places I frequent the most, I love having people around and hanging out with my friends so they can experience a day to day life here. Give them a full experience of the place they are, little amazing spots that took me ages to find in couple of days. I want people that come visit my city to enjoy the same way I do with theirs.

Interests

I love magazines, hip hop, skateboarding, street art, graffiti, cafe racers, 1967 mustang fastback, vintage muscle cars, illustration, design, architecture, photography, sound engineering, deejaying, scratching, video editing, web development, User Experience Design, Human Computer interaction

and so on and so forth.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Norway, survived by begging hot water, eating noodles, and sleeping in train stations. I then climbed the Preikestolen in late October. We camped in the wild did a bonfire and when we fell asleep, unexpectedly it started snowing, woke up in middle of the night dying of cold, it was -7 when the forecast was saying from 2 to 8. wohoo! Thank you life, I note that down.

What I Can Share with Hosts

At the moment I have 2 couches that open up as double beds, yes I can host 4 people but the apartment gets really messy as its small (40 m2) but its enough to host 2 such as a couple or 2 friends.
I have a kitchen that is free to use, tv, xbox360, playstation3, central heating, shower, toilets and whatever you would expect from a house in France :)
