Hello World!

I'm Jou, a software developer in the oven willing to learn from everything and everybody. I could describe myself as a youtube-tutorial freak who loves caps and hats. As consequence of my learning hunger, I have too many hobbies, because I tend to lose myself on any temporary obsession such as: rug making, wood work, old myths from Barcelona, electronic basic knowledge, how to build tattoo gun with the engine of a juicer, growing an avocado ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I was in high school I did an exchange year in Austria and I remember that it was very enriching. I would like to have that feeling again, the feeling of doing things I've never done, sharing experiences with new people and visiting the hidden places (also the not so hidden).

I think that the best way to understand, to know, to visit... a place is meeting with the inhabitants and that's what CS gives me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read stuff on the internet like weird news and the WikiHow.
I don't have a favourite film but lately I like The First Wives Club (I'm a Diane Keaton fan).
My music taste changes often and it is hard to decide between some of the infinite great songs and artist that exist. All I can say that the last month I felt inspired by Daniel Johnston and Francis Bebey, but I also like Miss Lauryn Hill, Otis Redding, Nina Simone, the Beatles, the Talking Heads ...
