About Me

Hello!,
I am a nerd who works with computers but loves meeting people and sharing moments.
I consider myself a quiet, open-minded person with whom it is easy to talk and get along.
I love traveling, living new experiences as well as nurturing the experiences of the people I know, to expand my limits.
I love being in contact with nature, although I do not do enough to get close to it.
I exercise to stay in shape, I eat healthy but I'm not extreme with this and I enjoy a good pizza, beer and other terrenal pleasures :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I am a constant traveler and I really like to meet people from all over the world.
In my travels I have generally stayed at Airbnb where I have met many hosts and guests with whom I am now a friend.
I would like to make my home available to have the similar experience, but since I do not have a room to rent, I just put my sofa so that travelers can rest.
I see being in Couchsurfing as a way to give something back to the traveller community, which makes me so happy.
As a plus, I might end practicing my english as well.

Disclaimer: I'm a member since 2013 but I just get a cool apartment to share and I've never been a Couchsurf guest, that's why I don't have recommendations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read, but I do not read enough. I get caught in science fiction books, epic novels and comics.

I really like watching movies, if there is a classic movie that I did not see, I have the need to see it.
My favorites are the science fiction movies that blow your head (Matrix, Interstellar, Inception, etc). On the other hand I enjoy almost any other genre, although I try to avoid the romantic movies as much as I can.
I also like the anime, both in series and in movies.

Regarding music, I like rock, both international and national. After that, I also enjoy any musical style. Since I like to dance, I also enjoy any rhythm that allows me to do it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For a year I: changed my job, I earned money and I went to Europe for 3 months (the maximum allowed without a citizenship).

For a year I learned: to grow plants on my balcony, to assemble the rubic cube, to play some notes in the guitar. I move to my current department, I started and maintained my Crossfit training, I travelled a month to Europe and I learned to eat healthily (not in that order).

I went paragliding and survived some acrobatics, which was the most adrenaline-charged experience I had in my life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am somewhat a reserved person, but if there is good vibes I like very much to have a good chat, drink some mates, beer, wine or a drink.

During the week I have little time during the day because I work, but I can accompany with a beer to relax after a long day. Cooking something very basic (I'm not a good cook). Or just watch some movie on Netflix.

On weekends I can accompany the guests to know the city or have a drink in the bars or clubs in the area. If the weather is good, I can also take you to a river or visit a city in the Sierras.

I also respect anyone who needs silence and space to relax alone.
