About Me

Hey everybody!!
After living one year in Sweden as an exchange student, coming back to Barcelona felt a bit odd, the travel bug had caught me, and the bastard is not letting go!! So after finishing my Uni I decided to go see the world!

As for the describing yourself part, I'm not 100% sure what to say.....
Am I a nice person? Hmmm.....I like to think that.
Am I a good cook? Well, so far I haven't burnt any kitchen.
Alright, I'll stop asking myself questions and just describe me the best I can (bear with me a little longer, I'll make it short, I promise).
I like to explore new (things, foods, cultures...). Up for anything, from hang around to visit museums through pull an all nighter, go on hikes and play cards in the pub.

While living in Barcelona I came to find this quote:
"You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough" - From Mae West
and boy oh boy, it hit me hard! So I decided I wanna do that.....enjoy life!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Best way to meet new people I know, not much more to it. It's always exciting getting new perspectives of life.

Who knows who you might meet, what parties you might go to and what ideas might be shared with you. You never know what adventures life could present you with. I'm, most certainly, ready for them!

Interests

Pretty much just being outdoors!
I like all kind of sports, football, basketball, hockey, tennis, beer-pong....I recently started playing rugby, and I definitely love it!! My favourite sport is skiing though, there is something about the freedom and calm you get when rolling down a mountain that hooked me up from the moment I first did it!

I also like photography and to cook, I find it so relaxing (and tasty!!)

Partial to a bit of philosophical chats - being sober or not! And always open to a new suggestions!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourites change pretty much every day, I just couldn't stick to one group, movie or book. I like too many!!

I recently discovered Sticky Fingers, which I find so good!!

When it comes to movies, I just watched too many to even consider just saying one, so I'm gonna go for the must enlightening one I saw in the last few months: 180 Degrees South (I recommend this documentary 1000%)

And for the books, well I'm quite fan of Brandon Sanderson writing skills, but I pretty much read everything I can!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in a Sri Lankan jungle for one year while building a bamboo resort!

Teach, Learn, Share

For learning, I can't see an end to it....I just wanna learn as many things as I can, a language, a cooking style, how to surf (this one has been on my bucket list for soooo long!).....anything!!!
And of course, I'm a big fan of sharing from knowledge, to life experince.
