Overview
About Me
We are two wonderful guys Alvaro and Alen living together in the flat.
Alvaro is an expert on local political affairs and master student.
I ( Alen) am citizen of the world living around the globe for more than ten years. Recently moved to Spain (tough place for vegetarians:) giving classes of thermodynamics to the generation of future engineers. Learning guitar is also becoming my new passion/obsession. Runner and vipassana meditator. I am looking towards enjoying every moment of life. Being free in mind and contribute as much as possible. Honestly, it is easier said than done.
I am super lucky, working and living an multinational environment. That changed me, I think for the better. Living with the guys with so different cultural backgrounds can be challenging, but it also gives richness to our lives. But only the latest counts:)
My interest is in ecosystem and natural sciences but it is not complete picture of a "universe". More and more I am aware that social relations, arts, history, doing sports, spirituality are equally important. I love to meet cool people willing to discuss this issues.
We wish you to come with the smile on your face and ready to cook with a love and passion:) We are dying to try everything:):):)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING (Alen)
Difficult question. It sounds quite complex to me. The point of CS is sharing. CS dedicated to travelers, but it is a good example which can be applied also in other areas. More people adapts this logic closer we are to the better world. Lets make it better guys!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE (Alen)
I have been active Hospitality club member. As Couchsurfing has increased popularity I opened new Couchsurfing profile.
Hosting & meeting people is a great fun and experience that no school or book can offer. It is a part of continuous lifelong learning process. Couchsurfing is a top platform that connects adventures people. It is a celebration of almost forgotten verb "to share"
Interests
(Alen) Documentary movies are cool. They can offer alternative and extended view on the worlds issues from then, now and tomorrow. But TV screen gives two dimensional picture. In order to see it in 3D format we have to move our asses and explore the world with your own eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books
(Alen) Inspiring documentaries:
The Animal Communicator by Anna Breytenbach (http://www.animalspirit.org/)
Thrive by Foster and Kimberly Gamble
(http://www.thrivemovement.com/)
Not so much into movies apart from animal cartoons where the good always wins over bad:)
The best book you can read is travelling. Book I read now is for the teenagers and describers the stories of loosing the virginity juhuhuhu historias caliente. It is written in easy Spanish which makes it perfect for the fresh Spanish student.
If you ask If I am religious? Yes I am. You are my religion, I believe in you:) Don't stop believing, hold on to the believing ........
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
(Alen) The life itself is incredible journey. Allow the changes enter into your life and incredible things will come along.
Teach, Learn, Share
One of the best statements I have ever heard came wright from the couch surfer sending me a request. I believe it is very true, and I want to share it with everybody seeing my CS profile. It goes like this:
Be careful of your thoughts, for your thoughts become your words.
Be careful of your words, for your words become your actions.
Be careful of your actions, for your actions become your habits.
Be careful of your habits, for your habits become your character.
Be careful of your character, for your character becomes your destiny
