About Me

I´m a guy on his 40's with a 20+'s attitude towards life. Ex-erasmus student, and still feeling that syndrom of feeling the desire to know, share, learn... "Internationality" is my thing. I am an easy-going and relaxed guy; sometimes you would think I am a silent person, but sometimes I just like to observe, listen, and learn. And of course, to respect :) But, of course, I know how to fill a morning, evening, or a whole day with words, and some smiles.
P.S.: You need to be LGBTQI+ friendly if you want to be hosted by me. Please indicate this when you request to stay with me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I consider myself a permanent learner. Always open to learn new things, to share ideas, knowledge, care... And I think Couchsurfing is about sharing and caring. About taking care of the others as you would like to be taken care of. I have taken care of travellers and I have been taken care of - before Couchsurfing was known or became popular, so... that is basically why I´m here.

Interests

Seeing new places, knowing new people, listening to new languages, music, scenery, architecture... everything which is different from what I´m used to see, or from what I already know, is somehow appealing for me. I have a crush on "difference".
I will love to learn about the history of your country, about politics, about society. I will enjoy a city as well as a small village. Some beers in town and a walk in the forest.
I like architecture, urban shapes, nature, photography, history... And I also like vintage cars. I must confess I am in love with old Volvos. But in general I will love every car from the 60´s, 70´s or 80´s.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like a broad range of music. Muse, Radiohead, Coldplay are my favourites. But I also love 70´s and 80´s music, and always open to listening new things.
Regarding literature, i´m mostly into thrillers and crime novels. I love Henning Mankell and his great detective Wallander. Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö. Asa Larsson, Stieg Larsson, Jo Nesbo... But I am quite a reading person and I have read many genres and authors - although I´m afraid I don´t remember many if I read them long ago!
Movies...well, I must confess I download a lot of movies. I am a big James Bond fan, and as it happens with the books, I like thrillers and crime movies, as well as spies films and political plots.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This is quite a difficult thing to answer... For me, many small things in life are amazing, so I could not tell you one single big issue.

Teach, Learn, Share

Oh my... teach, learn, share.....??? Everything!!! :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you are curious about my country, the places I´ve lived in, or any of the topics I´m interested in, I will be eager to share a chat with you. I will probably ask you many things. I can share a coffee, a meal, or a whole day if we feel comfy.
