Overview
About Me
* Sorry guys, I would looove to host all of you but I’m now travelling through south east Asia, I don’t have a house anymore. I hope you find great hosts! *
I am from a little town near Barcelona, but I couldn't stay there for long knowing how big the world is. One month ago I was living and working in the Netherlands, Maastricht, but I decided to leave everything and start travelling through South East Asia.
Getting in contact with new cultures is what drives me in life. Show me your local food, your traditions, the hidden places in your city, and I'll be happy!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'd love to share my experiences with the local people from the places I visit, and exchange different points of view. But most of all, learn about other ways of living and have fun together.
Interests
I love art, painting, dancing, playing the piano, doing yoga.
I'm very interested in anything related to East Asia, I get crazy about Japanese literature and I laugh a lot with Chinese TV series, but most of all I’m interested in Chinese philosophy (especially Daoism).
I also love science although I don’t know much about it, so it always excites me to learn new stuff about the brain, the universe or Elon Musk’s rockets.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love reading. I really enjoy dirty realism novels, Bukowski, Dostoievski, Kenzaburo Oe. I also like surrealism and black novels.
As for music, I like a lot of stuff, but my favourite group of all times will always be Pink Floyd. I also enjoy classical music, hip-hop, techno, anything really! Anything that makes me feel something, anything that's done beautifully.
Movies? Give me Lars Von Trier, Almodovar, or even one of those shitty romantic movies they put on TV on a Sunday afternoon.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I traveled through China on my own, taking 30 hour trains without having a seat. Sitting and sleeping on the floor was pretty painful but very rewarding at the end.
Another amazing thing: I climbed the roof of my friend's place. This might not sound amazing but at that moment it was a whole achievement for me.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you Chinese, Spanish and even Catalan!
I can also teach you how to play the piano and how to cook amazing vegan and Chinese recipes :)
What I Can Share with Hosts
I'm friendly, I like interesting conversations but also stupid ones, where you just laugh about stuff. I'm always happy to meet new people and to learn about each other! Oh, and I have some pretty good ghosts stories... :p
