About Me

What can I tell about myself?? I am a very dynamic, active and friendly girl, really easy going and open minded. I'm pretty funny, too. Or at least, that is what I think :-)

I'm trying to enjoy this life as much as I can!

PHILOSOPHY: "La felicidad es de los valientes".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

CS is the best way to really get in touch with the culture of the places you are visiting.

Interests

I love theatre, cinema, languages, tap dance (or dancing in general), literature, scuba diving, hiking, sports, photography, drawing, wine and beer, new cultures and new people, renewable energies and sustainable architecture, enjoying little things like a coffee in a sunny terrace or a sunset at the sea, the smell of clean blankets or listening to the rain from my bed... But my real passion is to TRAVEL.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books are one of my passions, but the paper ones... I am not really used to Kindle yet ;) I read from classics to bestsellers, from deep touching books to easy novels, from historical books to fantasy or science fiction. It simply depends on my mood.

Oh, and I love maps. I can just stare at a map for a long time and I will find it always fascinating.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my safe and loved job as engineer in Barcelona during the worst Spanish crisis ever just to fulfil a dream: to travel around the world for a year!!

... and I'm able to lick my own elbow... it is not impossible! (I know, I know, it is an stupid ability ;P)

Teach, Learn, Share

I draw, but I'm not very good, so I'm not able to teach. I dance tap, but I'm not good either, even if I can teach you some steps ;P I travel a lot, so maybe I can give you some advice or I can just show you my city or cook an Spanish omelette...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I prefer to host people who is in a long term travel, as I was in the same situation during my round the world trip :) So, if you are in town just to party, I am not a suitable host... sorry!

And please, stop with "Copy & Paste" requests, I am not even going to answer you if you do so. Then, just to know that you have read my profile, or at least that you are smart enough to check this last part of the description, you can start your request telling me which is the capital of Germany ;)
