About Me

{CASTELLANO}

Hola! Soy un chico nacido en un pequeño pueblo mediterraneo y junto a mi pareja Georgina vivimos en un pueblo cerca de Barcelona.

Recientemente regresamos de un largo viaje de 10 meses por el mundo en el que nos alojamos con muchos hosts. Los dos somos profesores que se tomaron un año libre para viajar. Somos una pareja amigable a la que le encanta las aventuras fuertes así como la calidez de un hogar. Usamos CS para establecer lazos con gente de otros paises y aprender de difetentes culturas.

Vivimos en Argentona, un pueblo a 30 km de Barcelona y a unos 5 km del mar. Si lo que quieres es visitar la ciudad ten en cuenta que no hay demasiadas connexiones con transporte público, aunque si es fin de semana quizás podemos hacer algun plan juntos.

Aceptamos a cualquier tipo de persona siempre que sea amable y responsable!

{ENGLISH}

Hi! I'm a 27 years old boy from a little town near Barcelona and together with my girlfriend Georgina we just came back from a long trip around the world.

We're both from a small town in the Catalan mediterranean coast and we're both teachers that took a year off to travel around. We're an easy going couple, we love adventures and hard experiences as well as home and family warmth.

About me I can say that I've studied Political Sciences and Public Management and worked as a social researcher for some time even though now I've focused my career on education, becoming a history teacher in secondary education.

I like adventures and hard experiences. My bucket list of places to be and experiences that I want to live seems endless. Sometimes I'm a bit shy but I also love to meet new people. I'm open minded and I try to accept people as they are. I always try to flow in experiences and to forget attachment. When travelling I find purpose in comprehending how really are the places and societies i visit, in a way of trying to understand how the world is and works.

We hope to meet you on the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that solidarity between travelers is a very good thing and CS can offer that. I want to learn about the local life!

I really appreciate all the efforts that people do to host me, using CS or not. I had so many good experiences and I wish I'll continue enjoying good moments with hosts and I hope that in the future also with surfers!

Interests

I really like travelling and all things that this involves: meeting new people, learning about new cultures, tasting new food, photography, etc.

Above all I like to try new things, so that leads me to too many hobbies as:

Music, Movies, and Books

Music 🎼: any kind, from Trance to Bossa Nova with Punk in between.

Movies 🎬: any one that makes you think and drives to an interesting discussion.

Books 📚: I like any good book, but I'm really into fantasy books as Lord Of The Rings, Song Of Fire And Snow or The Kingkiller Chronicle.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked in the Himalayas 🏔️
Rode my motorbike through the desert in Morocco 🏜️
Sailed on the open sea 🌊
Acted in a music festival 🎤
Saw a wild rinho in Nepal just in front of me 🦏
Hitchhiked across Iran and (Iraqi) Kurdistan 🚛

Every travel I did and a lot of daily but meaningful experiences!

What I Can Share with Hosts

First of all I can offer my kindness, time and good moments.

If you are a musician maybe we can play together or we can cook if you like. I can also teach you a lot about Catalonia and Spain and some things of the places I've travelled before.

I don't need much attention, but everything you can offer to me would be appreciated!
