About Me

Hello, hola! :)

Wow, its so hard to describe yourself!
I was one of those people who let themselves be convinced about having only one passion and then turn it into a full-time job and live happily. I chose graphic design and art direction and after finishing my studies, with 21 years, I made my first trip outside Europe looking for an amazing experience.

After this trip, when I returned to Barcelona I spent some time working for different studios and I even made my own startup with two partners. I'd saved some money and allowed myself some whims but I was still sitting so many hours in front of a laptop feeling like "So... that's all?".
Oh dude, the world was waiting to be discovered.

One day I finally exploded. I left the company and jumped into a long trip to Asia and during this trip, I realized that my home, my family and my friends are wherever I go, in every new place.

Now, after almost 9 years I still traveling and using Couchsurfing as the best way to enjoy both people and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The world is too big to discover it alone! Couchsurfing makes you understand that the most amazing thing about travelling is to connect with people.
