About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To expand my own horizons

ABOUT ME

I'm working as computer programmer in Barcelona since 2007, but it doesn't mean I'm an IT geek. Well, I do not know the concept of "normal people"... I'm enjoying this city, but trying to know other places. I'm simple, easy going and open-minded. I like to know other people, having good conversations, taking coffe... or beer... I always laugh a lot, and very probably doing guffaws. Take care: it's very contagious :)

PHILOSOPHY

1) Respect each one as s/he is.
2) Live fast, die young (but responsibly) ;)
3) Don't look for happiness... find it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing, it's a very nice way to visit other places: I think only local people can guide you to the best experiencies.
And hosting, it's pleasant to show others real possibilities of Barcelona (yes, you never know if you'll love or hate the places I'll show you).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been living in this flat for the last three years, and here we hosted several people from several sides of the world (Germany, Poland, Norway, China...). In all cases, wonderful experiences.

Interests

I'm a music addict. Sometimes I can consume other soft drugs: tv shows, movies, ... (when alone); beer, chating, other cultures, people who contributes with their experiences... (when with someone).
The main interest: to try all the world's "drugs"... :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Well, I love from Ramones till RATM... Metallica, Turbonegro... but also Country, Rockabilly, even classic from time to time. My own gods: Johnny Cash, Eddie Veder and Elvis Presley.
I don't read a lot, but I loved The Lord of the Rings, Kafka, Dostoievsky... My own god: Saramago.
I like films that make you think, cry and laugh. I use to pay attention on film's director. My own gods: Cohen brothers, Eastwood... But also on the actor. My own gods: De Niro, Pitt, Clooney...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I haven't seen a lot (I'm on it)... by the moment, Eiffel tower wins!
And done... sky diving, no doubt!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't teach a lot of things... maybe I'm good making you to see the positive side of things :)
