"Travelling is like writing the best way to enjoy and to suffer the most in the least time."
Eugenia Rico from my book "In the country of the cows without eyes" about India.
I am author, I write and read books, books and travelling are my life. I even write professionally about travelling for El Pais. For example

I'm rather creative and sociable even though I have a degree in Law and in International Relations. Another great hobby of mine is music, I couldn't live without it!

Couchsurfing in one paragraph:
"Anyone hosting a Couchsurfer got an earful of intense and unforgettable stories, which weren’t likely to happen to anyone spending their nights in a comfortable, yet painfully boring hotel room. After all, the goal of a hotel was to make the guest feel at home even abroad; but that was the last thing a real traveler wanted! The experience of different customs, hearing the host’s own stories, immersing yourself in a new culture; these are the real reasons to travel. Otherwise why bother getting off your own couch?"
