Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
All of us when describing are really social, beautiful, open-minded, humble, and bla,bla,bla.
There are a few things that I can say about me: in process of hard-working, ethical values, and take it easy.
PHILOSOPHY
Since we all born there's an unquestionable destiny waiting for us: death. So, why should we live if we don't have dreams to believe in and fight for? No matter how hard they are, just go for it by having faith on yourself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Surfing and hosting. After this simple and somewhat obvious description, let's say that I'm really eager to help people as much as possible, no matter how (hosting, showing around, offering a coffee, listening to their worries...), as well as the other way around.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The more I know how CS works, the more I like it. I was encouraged by my then flatmate one day before a trip to Örebro (Sweden). It was such a good feeling that now I cannot disconnect of this way.
Simply let's welcome everyone to apply for it and request me whenever it is needed.
Interests
It would be a bit easier to write what I'm not interested in :D
Every single day is a perfect chance to learn a bit more, specially when you've been very wrong.
Anyway, I'm quite focused on travelling and meet new people/cultures (if it is in weird situations much better). Enjoy the pleasure of staying with lots of new interesting people in a lonely trip.
I'm very into Communication and Anthropology . I would consider myself a great ignorant about these topics, that's why I get the feeling of learning quite much at every moment.
I love brilliant minds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
From interviewing Christopher Sims (2011 Nobel Prize of Economics) to a long trip all over the Baltics as a backpacker. Anyway it's tricky to choose. I'm pretty selfish in this sort of questions. Every moment is full of worthy experiences. Why highlighting one?
What I Can Share with Hosts
Keeping in mind the current boom of both Spanish culture and language learning, I feel the need to teach and share my knowledge, as native, to everyone keen on it.
Merengue... don't expect to find an expert in me, but do really expect to laugh a lot meanwhile :D
