An open mind is essential for growth.

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I don't like small talks... I'd rather spend a whole day talking about personal experiences, goals in life, ideas, ways of being a better person, books, music, art or whatever other people are passionate about.

Industrial Designer and martial artist.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a book to read, but no one is going to read it for you, so go ahead!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy traveling and meeting new people, also hosting people from other places is always interesting and fun.

Interests

Most of my time is spent on reading, listening music, sports and online courses.

I've practiced martial arts for 9 years, because I found in them a way to get close to myself through meditation and consciousness of my body abilities and limits.

Cycling, swimming, photography, nutrition, anatomy, camping, hiking, psychology, and films.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite kind of music is electronic (Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, Autechre, Air, Blue Hawaii, Biosphere, Andy Stott, Mike Paradinas, Ametsub, Com Truise, Emptyset, etc). I also enjoy jazz, classical music, prog-rock, avant-garde, and so on.

I usually read books in english because it's a way to practice it and at the same time learn other things. My preferences are psychology, nutrition, art, anthropology (Jared Diamond -great man- , Yuval Noah) and whatever that helps me undertand humans.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Roadtrips, skydiving, judo tournament, and living :P

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share some knowledge on photography, nutrition, conversations on art, anthropology, sports, and design.

About learing... everything is good when it comes to learning!
