About Me

Catalan from Barcelona who wants to explore the world! I have met amazing people around the globe thanks to CS and I try to give the favor back by doing the same thing, spending time with foreigners that visit the beautiful city of Barcelona, and of course, save money so you can later spend it on food ;)

I consider myself a very curious person and I enjoy having deep conversations, I love learning! I like playing all sorts of sports from basketball to hiking. I am currently studying a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence, so yes, indeed a bit nerdy in topics related to computers, neuroscience, psychology, and mathematics.

In my free time, I practice sports, study mandarin and I plan to start electric guitar lessons soon!
