I am a Basque citizen, journalist and cultural activist.
I live in a small town, but very alive. http://larrabetzu.eus
I am a lover of popular culture: literature, cinema, music, theater ...
I like traveling, meeting people, inviting people to know my country, my little town.
I have been in the world of new technologies for more than 20 years, and they are not so much anymore.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always been interested in human relations, the exchange of knowledge, materials and collective use of material things.
Traveling is a great opportunity, to make you winged of people who can help you much more.
I like being hospitable, inviting friends home, having dinner and talking together.
I think couch surfing is a good opportunity for my way of looking at life.
