About Me

VIP: I only host “verified profiles”… sorry!
World traveller, open minded, waking up daily opens a white new page in my diary and I feel responsible for what I write there!
Adventurous, welcoming, grateful, communicative, charming, hard worker, humble, empathetic, stubborn ;)
Many contrasts under a well furnished head and an emotional heart....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am working in the concept of "less is more"... and that leads to the concept of "sharing"!!!!!
Before this existed, have hosted A LOT of people in my home in Madrid, short of long periods.... Always received more than I offered, mainly learning and lifetime friendships.
So why not?
If I am open minded, the door of my house must also be open!
