About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Discovering the wonders of life
ABOUT ME
People say I am nice, generous, funny, intelligent and responsable, but it's up to you to trust them ;) I am certainly kind, open-minded and hard-working and love to learn new things about life: cities, people, cultures... Books and movies help a lot, but I hope I'll get to visit every single corner of the World sooner or later. By the way, I do not drink much nor smoke, but I can have fun at a party anyway!
PHILOSOPHY
In case you have doubts about something, just do it. It's the only way to know if you were supposed to do it or not ;)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now, I live with my parents unless I am traveling or studying/working abroad for some reason, so I cannot posible host anyone. However, I am willing to meet people all around the World through coachsurfing and I can show you the wonders of my city, Madrid, if I happen to be here when you come :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have done coachsurfing throughout the US and it was definitely a great experience.
Interests
Movies (from silent classics to modern blockbusters, including, of course, World Cinema) and books (mostly fantasy and comedy, but I love different kinds of books). Big fan of The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Audrey Hepburn. I love to meet new people, speak new languages and go out with my friends, as well as singing and dancing. I am interested in everything concerning East Asia.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Road trip throughout the West Coast of the US and around the coast of Mexico: best experiences ever! Studying in London & L.A. has also helped my development as the person I am right now. And once I sang a Spanish song in front of a huge international audience: that was also incredible!
Teach, Learn, Share
I am willing to teach English and Spanish (I actually do so as a job, but it'd be free for coachsurfers hehe) and to improve my French and learn more languages (hopefuly Chinese or Japanese, as I love their culture). I love music; unfortunately I do not play any instrument, but I can sing and dance! I certainly can teach you loads of things about movies, also, and I'm always willing to learn more things about this life!
