About Me

Having taught myself English, I moved out on my own from a remote village in Eastern Spain to Bristol a year ago, aged 18. I now work a couple of jobs to meet living costs while trying to self-finance my own film projects and my life adventures.

My teenage years have been greatly influenced by freestyle football, I got the chance to travel around Spanish lands meeting the other lads what were practicing the sport.

With two short films already under my belt, I'm still self-learning the complicated art of film and photography but more importantly, I'm still budding, trying to find myself among all this buzz.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new interesting people and explore places that I would never get to know by myself.

And the other reason is that one that few people will admit, being broke.
