Overview
About Me
I am living in a lovely house in the Sierra de Guadarrama, 60 km north of Madrid.
About me: there are many places outside waiting for us and I'm impatient to discover each little corner of them! I'm very curious about cultures, people, lifestyles, beliefs... So whenever I can I approach new places in order to evoke new feelings and reflections which make me grow up and expand my soul.
My motto is to life with passion, trying to be coherent and consistent with my ideals. I also try to live my life in a generous, respectful and collaborative way, with others and with the nature. I believe strongly in the power of collective action to achieve a social change.
I like to undertake different projects and involve myself in social and cultural initiatives, as well as in peace, environmental and human right movements that demand social justice and real changes in our society.
PHILOSOPHY
"The best wonderful thing about life is that anything can happen"
"Only the person who risks is truly free"
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love cultural exchanges, know different life stories and meet inspiring people so I think the Couchsurfing community is a great opportunity for that!
I also try to avoid conventional touristic circuits because I consider them totally impersonal and don’t offer me the most magical dimension of a place: their people.
Interests
I'm mad about photography, travel, dances, African culture, activism and social movements, meet people & share experiences, good conversations, sleep in nature, beaches, mountains, laugh until my stomach hurt…
