Hello everyone! I'm Gerard from Barcelona, I work as a Film Editor and I teach the Editing art at University. I love Cinema, Music, going out to Party, Karaokes, cooking (that doesnt mean I'm good at it, but I try!) hiking and adventure (at it's measure :p) reading (I love science fiction and magical realism! I like when things mess up I guess :O) and having conversations about whatever, profound or superficial, about psychology or the cosmos, about Barcelona's last game or about how Spice Girls changed the world and many other things didn't, anything that involves knowing new people and widening the map of what we call life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing experiences is what makes you grow as a person, I know everyone I meet here will fill me somehow and I'll bring with me lots of stories worth telling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Diving with 25 bullsharks without any cage while they were being fed in Fiji probably is a highlight. Also being a teacher in the university I studied in is one of the best experiences I've ever had, feeling the sinergy between students and me and sharing so many great times and knowledge together. --> By teaching you'll be taught!

Editing my first movie as an editor and premiereing it with all the cast and crew. I hope you can see it soon on cinemas!

Check it out! ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied Cinema so I can share my knowledge about how it works and specially the importance of editing. Also I have some good notions about photography. I know how to play piano and some percussion. I also studied Psychology before cinema so be prepared to be analized! haha, joking...

I love to go out and have some good times with a beer and chatting or in a disco and dancing (okay, and on a Karaoke and singing) or just staying home watching a movie and playing card or boardgames, there's a time for everything.

I can teach you some Spanish or even Catalan if you want!
