Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel around the world meeting different people and their culture.
ABOUT ME
It's been always hard to me to speak about myself, so I will let you make an idea about how I am by reading other's people opinions on my profile ;)
PHILOSOPHY
I do not follow any formal nor religious philosophy but somehow I like to enjoy meeting new people visiting new countries and sharing personal (and gastronomical) experiences. I like to think that this world is improvable and with a little effort coming from each one we can bring a better place to live to our child.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I heard about it from a friend in Saudi Arabia. They were pretty happy with the experience and I decided to jump in.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've hosted several times and each experience has been amazing and very enriching!! I've "travelled" from Canada to Russia and I wouldn't change it for anything in the world.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love rock&roll, indeed I got a bit stuck on the 70's with deep purple, pink floyd and all those classics... Currently I am getting more opened to the jazz and flamenco. As far as literature concerns I felt in love with Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but I also like 'softer' writers as Stephen King and of course science fiction (master Isaac Asimov and Orson Scott)
Finally regarding cinema I enjoy all kind of movies, I do not have any favorite one but gattaca and requiem for a dream made a huge impact on me during my adolescence... (and braveheart and schindler's list and of course starwars and...)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
'Amazing' quite a relative adjective, something I did I really enjoyed was spending 4 days camping in the alps (more that 2000 meters over the sea level) walking more that 6 hours per day with my gf.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am a IT professional, so If you have any doubt about programming languages and/or technologies do not hesitate on asking me... More seriously I can perfectly serve as a guide on a hiking route on the alpes :)
