About Me

CURRENT MISSION

smile and learn :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy from Madrid who studied Physics and Artificial Intelligence. I'm now living in Barcelona with my girlfriend, but I've formely lived in Stockholm (Erasmus), where I hosted some couchsurfers, and Venice (year off).

I'm a bit crazy and enjoy horsing around and having some smiles and strident laughs. I love practicing sports, cooking new and old recipes, reading good books in the train and drinking tasty cocktails or fine beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted and surfed the couches of the world. Now I'm planning to go on with the adventure!

I'm not currently accepting guests because I live in a flat with four more people and there is not enough space, sorry. In the future I will try to share more. :D

Interests

Computers, Physics, biking, free culture, philosophy, good (Belgian) beer, dancing like crazy, good friends.

I just love biking and dislike waiting for the bus or train. I'm too nervous/active for waiting.

I've always been a computer geek since I was a child, and I'm lucky I can work on something I love - that's free software.

I'm interested in the free culture movement, and with this I mean everything about copyright and copyleft, alternative financing methods, net neutrality, access to knowledge, and so on and on.

My favourite beer so far is the San Bernardus Prior. I'm a little biased because I usually had Belgium beer in Madrid, but beers like Chimay (blue), Trappiste Rochefort, Kastel or Te Deum are in my list of preferred beverages.
