About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Believing, standing up, and trying to make the world a bit of a better place for the Oceans, nature, humans and rest of animals on it.

Trying to understand the natural world that surrounds me to find the best ways to protect it. Spending most of my time between volunteering in different marine conservation organizations and studying and researching marine mammals around the world.

ABOUT ME

Hoping to be able to use my knowledge and career to conserve and preserve marine wildlife and ecosystems around the world. Always trying to understand better the places I am trying to protect, and the community who shares and have been understanding them for a long time. Trying to make my travels meaningful, and leave no trace or footprints to the natural world, but good memories and ideas to the people I cross my path with.

"Everything fell into place when we decided our lives were to be lived. Life serves the risk taker..."

Passionate, committed with my beliefs, traveler, adventurer, dreamer, active, positive, and easy-going!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had the opportunity to share my adventures with great couch surfing hosts and other non couch surfing hosts. They have been always incredibly enriching and I will always be grateful to have those memories. I also really enjoy hosting people and helping them to have the best Barcelona experience, even-though It is difficult as I am not here very often. I have mostly hosted friends-of-friends and other travelers, but I have never done so (yet) through the couch-surfing page.

I can't really imagine a better way of traveling! Meeting with the locals and get to know their reality and how they see the places that I am trying to get to know, its a vital part of this experiences.

I love to share adventures, to meet travelers, to get to know people who has a fire inside burning for adventures. To talk about stories, to listen, to learn.

After some years of living in ships and traveling through old and new friend's couches, I am really excited to be active in this community again and keep building up experiences and friend-ships around the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Documentary films such as "The Cove", "The end of the Line", " Shark water", "Minds in the water" that show us the reality of the state of our oceans.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To be a part of saving more than 3000 whales in Antarctica.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can offer a lot of passion for learning, for helping, for being in contact with the Ocean, with nature, with travelers and places that talk by themselves. I can show you about the critic state of the oceans and all its creatures, and we can share photographic diaries and hours of stories about wind, albatrosses and storms.

I can also share marine mammal and marine biology knowledge if you are interested! :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share some Spanish lessons and meals! :)
