About Me

I come from Valencia, Spain.
I love my city and my country for many reasons; one of the first is the weather: sunny, hot... Valencia is near to the Mediterranean sea and also the mountains, the people are friendly, welcoming, funny ... and we have a nice gastronomy.

In my Erasmus year i was discovered a new pleasure in life, experiment the feeling of discovers a new language, spend time with people of different cultures and learn how to live with theirs costumes. But who join with me the desire TO SHARE together through conversations or coexistence. All this have started to fill my thoughts and knowledge and brings me new things on which reflect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing, among many other things is a new discovery in my life thanks to Erasmus. One of those things that do to travel easier and exciting because it puts you in contact with people whom you can immerse yourself in the culture, language and customs of the place that makes travel a PLEASURE.
Exchanging recipes or rich typical dishes and music of the country, learn or practice the language, know the city from hands of who knows it well…

In addition Couchsurfing make possible to travel anyone even thought their economic situation.

Interests

I like so much cook, listen music, go to the cinema, shows, concerts… I love going out to drink and dance, meet new people, live new experiences.
I am passionate about architecture and art in general to discover it getting lost on new cities.
What I like most and with I learn is to have interesting conversations and spend hours philosophizing about life.

I like to participate in volunteer activities, in my city or different Countries.
I know that I can’t change the world but I can bring my bit to improve it and influence those who are around me to do the same.

I would like someday to use Architecture as my tool to help make a better world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I think that music is a pleasure done for all the feelings that is why it is so varied.
I haven’t special preference for a song or type of music. I like to hear the sound of the guitar, a stringed instrument or an amazing voice.
Like “Jorge Drexler”, “Cristhal fi¡ghters”, “Lana Del Rey”, “The xx”, “Estopa”...

As for the cinema , I think it's one of my passion because it move you to another world and like music is made for all the feelings that’s why it’s so varied although I love Romanticism "The Notebook", " Moulin Rouge" but also for a good Tarantino’s movie .

I'm not very good reader, but a good historical novel like “La prisionera de Teherán ", "El sueño del olivar" can catch me completely.

I’m sportive but I prefer exciting or competitive sports.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the best experiences was a trip two summers ago to Johannesburg (South Africa).
For a month I worked in a residence of students for cover the expenses of my stay there and for to do volunteer activities in my free time especially with orphan kids.
For the first it wasn’t be only a tourist travel and I had immersed myself in a different place, where the language, culture, even the timetable were new to me, living with local people and adapting to their habits and customs. And I managed feel like at home so far from my city because of how wonderful it’s to discover new people with much to bring to my life, knowledge , histories, feelings, smiles…

What I Can Share with Hosts

With hosts I can share with them experiences, my culture, my food, my favorite music, my favorite movies... And I hope to learn all about them, hear their stories, try their meals, listen to their music … Especially to create a new relationship doing things together.
