CURRENT MISSION

I'd like to help others enjoy Barcelona and I hope you will help me get to know your city - and ideally, yourself.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty active person who is generally looking forward to the couchsurfing experience. I have many interests and want to share them.

PHILOSOPHY

Humility before the fact. Actually, that's from Hugh Laurie, but it's a good start.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

To be continued.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was actually already a host for two couchsurfers (not counting visiting friends n family) here in Barcelona, it was fun! I love the couchsurfing community, it's very refreshing and off the wall.

Interests

Learning languages, dancing salsa (L.A. style & cubana) & others, drawing, reading, being a Felicia Day fan, recovering from WoW addiction, learning WordPress & SEO basics (wish me luck!), cooking & eating, hiking, jogging, trying to find time to go to the gym and fitting it all into the pesky limitation of 24 hours in a day.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
Fool on the Hill, Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy of course, 1984, Brave New World, The Star's Tennis Balls (it's not what it sounds like), everything from Tad Williams, most of Tolkien, most of Haruki Murakami, most of Terry Pratchett, most of Jennifer Crusie, Stasiland, Looking for Alaska (check out Nerdfighters on youtube!), Hardcore Zen (way better than Eat Pray Love!), The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, El alma esta en el cerebro /The Soul is in the Brain, La Prisionière/The Prisoner (Malika Oufkir, that is), ...etc.
Movies and music, well let's just say that could be yet another book.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Standing on top of 2 dolphins (no dolphins were harmed), wild water rafting, being on stage, canoeing in algonquin park, dodging a deer on the highway at 4 am on the way to Montreal (that is not bad when you've been driving all night long), moving from Paris to Barcelona

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm convinced that people can deduct what I am qualified to teach from the other sections, but ask if in doubt.
