About Me

Luiso, 1998
I love to travel alone to discover how truly the world is and to meet incredible people. My first big experience was when I was able to live a few months in Iceland playing football in Reykjavík in a professional team u-19. Then I was able to do an incredible interrail with three of my best friends where we could see all of Europe sleeping on the street or doing couchsurfing. Finally last summer I ventured to travel all over Scotland, from Edinburgh to Dunnet Head, walking and sleeping where I could.
Now, my next adventure is to visit Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand in order to know what those places are like.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, traveling (as cheap as possible) and living new experiences. As I said before, my next project is to travel through a lot of Southeast Asia alone and Couchsurfing gives me the opportunity to meet new people.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music but above all I like to listen to native music of the place where I am with it´s language. The same with the movies but no better than those that make you laugh and obviously always dubbed into Spanish :D. finally, as a future philologist, I especially like literature and the stranger the more fascinating I think, especially my weakness is Icelandic literature.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As I said in my presentation, I was able to live in Reykjavík for a few months playing soccer, which allowed me to get to know the whole island. However, I think the way we went around Europe sleeping in the street really changed my way of seeing and knowing the world. Finally my last trip around Scotland completely just looking for my life working in sporadic jobs along the way and meeting incredible people made me discover my taste for traveling alone meeting new people along the way.

Teach, Learn, Share

My dream and life project is to finish my university career in order to be a Spanish teacher in the foreigner, for that reason I love being able to teach basic notions and some typical words in Spanish while the others teach them in their language. Another thing that I also love to share are my travel experiences and recommendations, just as I also love hearing them from others to know new places to visit and see.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I always like to come with a few beers to share and a bottle of white wine. Nothing better to start a conversation and get to know each other! Afterwards I also love cooking and preparing some typical Spanish dish I love whenever possible.
