(the format of my description comes from the old CS profile structure)

CURRENT MISSION

Solve the big problems of the world. But you know, one piece at a time. I studied a master in Economic Growth and Development, and I am trying to learn French.

ABOUT ME

I'm a very easy person to live with and have experience in living with different kinds of people. I really like travelling, but what I like most of any trip is meeting new people, especially locals!

PHILOSOPHY

I hardly ever get stressed, life is too short for that. My mission in life is to make a change in the world we're living in and, for that, I'm studying economics (I'm not sure if it's the best idea, by the way). Some people say that it's a very high goal, but I've always liked the quote "Only those who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are able to change it".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I was an exchange student in St. Louis (US), I did a trip during spring break and stayed with three different hosts, and all of them were great. Later on I stayed with hosts in Salt Lake City and San Francisco. So far I've hosted four people already, and met with some Couchsurfers in Madrid.

Interests

Reading, watching movies and shows and traveling! Lately I've been quite interested in theatre, and I've taken some classes too!
