About Me

Hi! I'm a 22 year old student from Spain, and I am taking some time to backpack solo. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about them , especially while traveling. I like music, to cook good food (although this doesn't always work well), reading and writing. I have been backpacking since I was a young kid and I love it, the feeling of self-sufficiency and adventure. I hope I can share my house with you (whenever I'm there), and to meet you in yours so we can trade nice anecdotes and a fine time!

Music, Movies, and Books

Hobbies
I like to read all sorts of things, from the Lord of the Rings to Marco Polo's account of his travels to papers on plant behavior. I like economics and biology, specially economic history and evolutionary biology. I think I can hold a conversation on many topics, but I'm particularly well-versed in history, especially Spanish history, and on how to waste your time on YouTube, which I'm a World-renowned expert on.

Against the Grain by James C. Scott
