About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To roll up again for the magical mystery tour! I'm also trying to improve my reply rate.

ABOUT ME

I normally don't to worry about anything. My current inspiration are books and songs. I'm a member of the Bop Generation, which only goal is to have fun and make people have fun as well. Oh, and I hate burocracy.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around for a while, you could miss it." Ferris Bueller.

"You can't have fun not having fun." Andrew VanWyngarden.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I meet people, I hear their stories, share mine, drink, laugh, cry with them... Never really cried with a guess, but who knows.

We haven't hosted in a while, but we wanna get back to it (only on the weekends, so we can enjoy the experience).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted some great surfers and I've been couchsurfing in Geneva, Amsterdam and Edinburgh (incredible experiences). Everything about Couchsurfing is quite awesome.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I organized a music festival in 2011, Experiencia Bop (it will be eventually a second edition). I've listened The Flaming Lips' 6 hours song, and I'm waiting for the right moment to listen the 24 hour song (I don't see it happening).

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach basics about film writing (not really, I just like it, I don't know if I can teach anything). I would like to learn about surf and acid culture from the 60s. I'd also like to learn more about cinematography and photography (ilumination, basically), and how to cook properly. Someday...

What I Can Share with Hosts

Lots of fun, music and films. Home feeling.
