About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Going around the world by bicycle

ABOUT ME

Hello,

Im 28 years old and Im from Bilbao. I like sports, nature, to read and discovering new people and places. I like learning about everyones experiences.

Right now I´m in a common project with the "University of Basque Country" to circle the world by bicycle. Two friends and I left Spain in July of 2013 and we are already in Myanmar. I have met all kind of people and I learnt a lot about different cultures and life in general. You can have a look to our website: biziklautak.com

At this moment I cant host anybody because of my long trip but i would like to do it when I return home. But if you need somewhere to stay I can contact my friends and maybe they can help you.

I´m easy going and I like laughing a lot. I don´t know what can I put more...

See you!

PHILOSOPHY

Knowledge can be communicated, but not wisdom. One can find it, live it, be fortified by it, do wonders through it, but one cannot communicate and teach it." Siddhartha

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I arrived in Annapurnas Base Camp, it was awesome! Peace, nature and being surrounded by high, snowy mountains...and a bit of a headache because of the altitude, of course!

The second amazing thing was in Nepal too. I was there as a volunteer in an orphanage for 8 days, and the experience with the children was amazing and unforgettable!

Now I'm trying to cycle the world :)
