About Me
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I was introduced in couchsurfing by a friend I met while travelling. I haven't used much, but I got good friends out of the few occasions I used it. The main reason I am in couchsurfing is that it's a great tool to meet people with similar interests and to share experiences while hosting or surfing.
Interests
I love listening to music, I am always trying to find a new sound, I like musician that mix differents kind of music.
I like visiting new places, and specially living in a new city (much better if it is foreign) for a couple of months, it provides many experiences and I always meet incredible people.
I also like doing some sports, mainly playing basketball (and watching it), cycling and since I am in Switzerland I am addicted to the snow (I've learnt snowboard and ski).

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I love Arcade Fire, John Frusciante (Red Hot Chili Peppers guitarist), The Whitest Boy Alive, The John Butler Trio, U2, Yann Tiersen among others.
My favourite film is Big Fish, because after seeing the world feels different.
The books I read are mainly recommendations from a few persons I know. They have read a lot, and they always know an interesting book to offer me :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach some Spanish, although I am horrible with the grammar. At least I can show you how the Andalusian dialect is ;)
What I Can Share with Hosts
During the week I am working, therefore I can't do much. Still I can show Bern, have some beers or some food.
During the weekends, it depends on the season. In summer besides going for drinks, I go a lot down the river (3-4 hours pleasant ride with friends, drinks and food) or hiking. During the winter season, it's all about skiing/snowboarding! The slopes are about 1 hr away from my place.
