Overview
About Me
I'm an usually creative and restless guy going through a weird life moment. I've been creating musicals and theater shows for children for a living for 10 years now for my own company. I also have a filmmaking career on the side, and everything creative attracts me, so I ended up being a one-man band kind of guy. If you ask me what I do, I'm a storyteller.
I don't drink alcohol nor I'm a pub crawl kind of guy, but would join gladly in one. That doesn't mean I can't be funny, actually I like black and weird humor. A lot. People say I'm very good at figuring out people. I agree.
_____
"Creativo" pragmático y emprendedor. Mucho por hacer y poco tiempo para hacerlo. Intensito que hace teatro para niños. Toda la música, todos los días. Más de día que de noche.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm living by myself in Madrid for the first time in my life, and this summer I won't be going away on some long holidays like most of you couchsurfers do, so I thought it would be a great opportunity to get to know people acting as the host myself. I'm a very curious person, so I thought helping people get to know Madrid through my eyes would, at the same time, give me the opportunity to get to know different cultures and points of view. Also, I'm very curious about hanging out with musicians and creatives to see if we can create something together.
________
Estoy viviendo solo en el centro de Madrid por primera vez en mi vida. Así que para aprovechar este verano, en lugar de irme de vacaciones quiero ser las vacaciones de otras personas. Tengo curiosidad por conocer a personas creativas y con algo que decir.
Interests
About what I like, it revolves usually around culture, conversation, exploration and creation plans are always welcome. I'm the guy that says "let's go to watch this new weird show coming from Wherever". Love the creative scenes in the city, deep internet culture and technology.
I like beatmaking and I'm a hobbyist musician and producer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Basically surviving a lot of stress and under-pressure situations. Getting money doing what I love is a pretty cool achievement too, I think.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach Spanish (duh)
We can share culture, specially music. To me it's a must-have conversation.
We can create together in many ways.
______
Puedo enseñarte inglés.
Podemos compartir música y cultura. Para mí básico y clave.
Podemos crear juntos de mil maneras.
Podemos conocer otras cosas de Madrid fuera de lo típico. También lo típico.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer a bed and a place to stay. Not that much of a cook, but hey, lots of nice restaurants around.
I'll help you with directions, apps and websites to check and must-haves.
Besides what I said above, I can offer guidance and help from another human being, really. Just let me know what you need and I'll try to help you.
