About Me

I just finished my bachelor degree in Music at the Conservatory of Alicante, Spain.

I consider myself an open minded person who loves to meet new people, to learn new things and to discover different ways of thinking and living.

I'm a relaxed, easy-going, normal guy. I usually prefer quiet plans like walking, having great conversations, making music with friends or creative things in general. I'm not that much into crazy partying, involving alcohol and loud noises.

I feel very happy when I'm surrounded by multicultural environments and I have to talk other languages. When I am alone, I usually enjoy making music with Ableton Live, playing instruments or editing photos/ videos. I really enjoy working in the audiovisual world.

I also enjoy sports, but I see them as a tool to maintain my body, rather than to compete. I've played beach volleyball and tennis, but I prefer nature related sports like hiking, running around or just some callisthenics excercices like push-ups.

I would like to learn new languages and also to cook exotic dishes from around the world! Looking forward to meet you :)

Currently I cannot be a host because I don't have my own house. I still live with my parents in Spain, but for sure I will also become a host when I'm able to. So, now it's only possible to me to be a guest in other places.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet new people, to learn new languages and to make new experiences. Couch Surfing is based on it, so it's pretty much the best way to achieve those goals.

Interests

To me, meeting new people is really fulfilling. I'm always inspired by their stories. Sharing enriches us.

I enjoy simple things like being around my cats, playing music at the beach, or watching videos on YouTube.

I recently discovered Erasmus+ projects. I went to a Youth Exchange in Íscar, Valladolid (Spain). I've been acepted in a Training Course in Rumania in September and after that I'm planning to do a long-term volunteering in some European country.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy listening to some classical music because I've studied it at the Conservatory. But I also enjoy modern music. My favourite rock band is System of a Down. I also enjoy EDM music, specially David Guetta and also some dubstepy Skrillex. In the past I was a lot into Rap music, not that much anymore but I still love the Hip-Hop culture.

Regarding books and films, I'm not into them that much. I prefer reading technical books about how to make particular things rather than literature. I enjoy watching films but I'm not a fanatic. I enjoy it specially if I'm surrounded by other people who I have a good conexion with :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I met personally the world's champion memorist Ramón Campayo. He is awesome and super intelligent.

Teach, Learn, Share

Your mind is your best friend. Your body, your better allied. Your soul, your perfect guide.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my thoughts, my experiences and my dreams. Also my company. We can have conversations so that we can enrich both of us as human beings.

I'm a native Spanish so I can help with the language if you are interested. We can talk in Spanish if you'd like to practice your conversation skills.

I'm also a professional musician and classical guitarist so I can teach you something involving music in general or guitar in particular.

I love to do creative activities. So if you're into music, photography or video making, I can help with that too.
