About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Starting a new stage of my life in Málaga as a Software Developer in the PTA, after living in different countries in Europe last 10 years.

ABOUT ME

Until the moment, in my life, I change from active moments with a lot of variety, challenges and improvisations, to moments of tranquility and stability, being difficult to stay in a place during a long time. Nevertheless, I think I'm starting to settle down in Málaga.

I consider myself a tolerant and respectful person with open mind and honest, and I really like to listen people stories and backgrounds and the new and different experiences in the world (maybe this is why I love traveling).

PHILOSOPHY

Beliefs.
I belive in ethic and moral not in imposed rules that you "have to" do or follow. I'm not happy with black & white perceptions, but tones of gray.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I'm in a process of getting a new apartment in Málaga, so I'm not able to host anybody now. However I'm happy to give advices or hang out around the city.

- 9 months in Poland, participating in several events, most of them in Gdansk, and hosting and be hosted in different places (Gdansk, Lodz and Krakow).
