Hola, I’m Faus!

🌊 Adventurer at heart – Born in Gran Canaria, but I’ve lived in Denmark and the Netherlands. I love the sea, surf skating everywhere, and chasing new experiences.

🎸 Hobby collector – Music (guitar, violin, piano, singing, dancing), scuba diving, surfing, bouldering, mountain biking, fixing things, and exploring.

🛠 Passionate creator – Ex-software developer, now building a gamified self-improvement app inspired by my own struggles with burnout and procrastination.

💙 Giving back – Cleaning beaches, photographing dogs that help mistreated women, and preparing for my dream: volunteering as a scuba diver to clean the ocean and photograph endangered marine life.

🚀 Always seeking connection – I love deep conversations, making people laugh, and bringing people together. Life’s an adventure—I’m here to live it fully.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm getting ready to start volunteering this year, my plan is to start cleaning the bottom of the ocean in Portugal and finish taking pictures of the submarine endangered species in Thailand, everything in between is still a mystery, I could definitely pay you a visit if you are up for it 😁

Interests

My hobby is having new hobbies, right now I'm focused on learning MUSIC, so, instead of learning one thing at a time as a regular person, I'm learning to play guitar, violin, piano, singing and dancing all at once; on top of that I'm also getting my second scuba diving license and surfing.
As you can imagine, I'm always running to pick the bus/the plane/the boat, you name it I run towards it.
