About Me

I am an open minded guy who loves to travel around the world, meeting new people and new cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that in order to really know a place is not enough with visit the most important monuments, eat the traditional food or enjoy the party there... For me it is very important to meet people from that site to really involve yourself in the culture. What better way to learn?

The same way I would like to visit places and live these experiences, I offer my place for those who think the same way I do. Besides, who doesn't like to live adventures?

Interests

I am a person with too many hobbies... I love music, cinema, books, trips, videogames... And as good Spanish guy: football, of course.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can speak about thousands of experiences, but I'm going to focus on the more related to travelling:
- I spent a summer in Uxbridge (UK) due to a scholarship. This was the first time I traveled outside my country.
- My second experience was living in Liverpool for another summer. One of the most wonderful experiences of my life. Great to be so envolved in one of my favorite bands (The Beatles) and my second football club (Liverpool).
- The best experience of my life was to live one year in Warsaw because of my Erasmus. I will always remember this year as the best one in my life...
- After that, I lived in Brno (Czech Republic) and Swindon (UK) for the last 3 years.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Depending on my vacation, I can offer my place or not.
If I can offer you and I am free these days, I'll teach you everything I can about the city. Also, if you are planning an interesting trip to some place that I don't know or I would like to visit again, I would be happy to go with you.
