About Me

CURRENT MISSION

First of all, find out what this CouchSurfing stuff is all about!

ABOUT ME

All? Let's try with this:

I am a public transit and urbanism enthusiast disguised as a software engineer. I really enjoy reading about design, usability and typography. Or talking about politics, ecologism, education among many others.
I'm @hanbzu on twitter and I have a baby-weblog at hibaiunzueta.com

I travel with Enea, my couple.

She is a prose writer disguised as a biochemist. She blends laboratory cooking recipes with inspiring short stories about people. She is able to maintain a long lasting conflict between the demanding scientist life and the Bohemian life of a writer. Only the future knows if any of the sides will win.

She has collected some stories in her blog epongeparlante.tumblr.com

We both like conversations over spending the whole night partying, classic cinema over television. But, some lego bricks told us the great big difference between us. I took the building blocks, she took the characters.
