About Me

Me gusta conocer a personas del lugar, que en la medida de lo posible me enseñen su tierra y esos sitios, no tienen por qué ser turísticos, que también sean importantes para ellos. Me gusta empaparme de la personalidad de un sitio, conocer a la gente y la cultura del lugar... Por supuesto, tomarnos algo si tienes tiempo, e invitarte a Ourense, donde vivo actualmente, o a Madrid, donde volveré por trabajo. En ambos sitios también puedo hacerte una ruta y presentarte gente, invitarte a actividades, juegos, la noche, etc. ;-)
Me gusta compartir, escuchar y aprender de la gente, los lazos humanos
Me encantaría también hacer alguna ruta de senderismo por la Naturaleza.

Estarás invitado, por supuesto, a Galicia , Barcelona, Madrid, o donde me toque trabajar y resida en ese momento :-)

Alguna propuesta?

Gracias! Abrazo

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a rental flat in Madrid, where I am working at this moment, and I love Galicia, my motherland, so I can show you my country if we agree! Its music and dancing, its culture, night life and having a beer or a great meal ;-) Nature too: lovely and incredible mountains and beaches, with its people. Galicia is one of the most beautiful and nicest places where to live! Millenary architecture of old town of Santiago, the free thermal baths, hot waters of my parents' town, Ourense... and a lot of nice places. And above all, a good and kind host, passionate about Galicia and meeting new people and cultures!

I can show you Madrid too. I don't need to tell the importance and all the art, nightlife and charm of the capital of Spain. :-)
