About Me

About Me

I love traveling, and while Durango, my hometown in Bizkaia, is where I come from, the world has been my home for the past few years. I've lived in places like the Maldives, Mexico, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malta. ..I enjoy hiking, climbing, the mountains, the sea, and playing basketball and rugby.

I'm an energetic person who loves good conversations. Although I don't drink often, I do enjoy a good beer and the occasional party. My friends would say I love to chat, dance, have fun, and that I rarely say no to plans. I'm always there for my friends when they need me.

As a diving instructor, I bring this same energy to the water. I love sharing my passion for the ocean with others, ensuring that everyone feels safe and enjoys every moment of their diving experience.

Philosophy

I’m someone who tries to make the most of the moment and place I’m in.
The most beautiful place is the one I’m in, not the one I wish I were in.
The best moment is the one I’m living, not the one I would have lived.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I’ve been hosted several times, and all of the experiences have been great. To highlight the most important one, I spent three months with the same family, and we built such strong bonds that I now call them family.

In Buenos Aires, thanks to the Concha community, I made many friends with whom I shared great moments.

And I been able to go from south Argentina to Bolivia knowing amazing people

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

All of my trips have been amazing: Nicaragua, Bulgaria, Cuba, England, Germany, Argentina, Uruguay, Nepal, Portugal, the Sahara, India, Thailand, Malasia, Malta, México, Túnez, Indonesia and even those I've taken across Spain.

The most incredible thing I’ve seen is Euskadi. ;)

In Nepal, I did a 7-day expedition rafting down the Karnali River, and it was intense. I’ve also dived with over 70 sharks and manta rays, jumped out of planes, and climbed walls over 500 meters high.

Teach, Learn, Share

There are only two days in the year when nothing can be done. One is called Yesterday and the other is called Tomorrow. Therefore, Today is the perfect day to love, grow, and most importantly, live!!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am an honest and honorable person who believes in good karma. I like to express gratitude and help in any way I can.
