About Me

"Don't just look through the window of a coach – get out there. Feel it, sniff it, eat it, and generally roll about in it" - Michael Palin.

"Travel can be an extraordinary catalyst for change. The leaps of faith we take and the differences we embrace, the paths we get lost on and the people we connect with—they all play a part in shaping the person we are and will be, wherever we happen to be" - Candace Rardon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I cannot host in Bilbao, but I will love to show you my city and share experiences if we find a gap to meet up. I volunteer in ESN Bilbao, so if you are visiting the city I'll be super glad if you join us in our events!

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy listening, watching and reading any kind of contents, I'm really opened and versatile. I really like films and I would love to be able to live from documentary filmmaking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to show you my city or share activities or sports we or you can do in the Basque Country. I am part of a buddy program for foreign incoming students and I'm also part of the Erasmus Student Network, so be sure I would love to share you my knowledge as a local and show you how I'm in love with Bilbao.

One of the things that I realized when being abroad it's the importance of learning languages. Though most of the people have a great English level, what about communicating with elderly and children that didn't have (maybe yet) the opportunity to learn more? In this sense, I would love to teach any Spanish that I could, and of course to learn any language that I find the opportunity to.
