About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I would think that we all have a purpose in life. I still don't know what mine is, so I try to travel as much as I can in order to meet new people and to open my mind to new visions, new worlds, new experiences.

ABOUT ME

I am a very active person and I am always looking for new things to do (I do not like routine). I love to travel and meet new people, immerse myself in the culture. I'm always in some kind of voluntary work and I try to always help others. I love to read good books and I love writing, is my way of expressing myself and I do it whenever I can. I also like to feel good and that's why I do a lot of sports and yoga, health is important. Another of my hobbies are acting, hanging out with friends and spend hours thinking and thinking, just because my mind likes to travel as well hahaha.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I said, I love travelling and meeting people, and I think couchsurfing is such a great way to do it... Every time I have the chance I try to find someone nice to meet and to spend some days in his/her city knowing it from her/his point of view as I think there's no better way to get to know a place that from the eyes of who is living there. Actually that's one of the reasons why I study Anthropology.

Plus Couchsurfing has given me so many good memories that I try to recommend it to everyone I can.

Interests

Definitely the way people understand the world and the diversity which exist in our reality, where different societies live and share knowledges. I want to be able to understand even the people who are different from me.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like rock music, reggae and drum and bass, but I am able to dance and enjoy any type of music, cause I love dancing and everytime I hear a song (no matter which one) my feet start moving around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well... I would say everything that takes some effort and motivation could be amazing, but if I have to choose something I would say that I spent some months in Ireland working for an organization (International Development Education Association) trying to create a campaign with 80 young people around Europe to change the way economy is changing our lives. I really loved the chance to do something like this, meeting so different people.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I love cooking so I guess I can show how to prepare some good Spanish food and I also like reading so we can share opinions and knowledges related with books. Culture is important so having some nice chats about politics, culture, or music would be great.
