About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Absorb what the world can bring me

ABOUT ME

1st year resident in Orthopaedic Surgery in Barcelona, currently doing an internship in Hamilton for 2 months. I am a very active, high motivated and hardworking person. I love SPORTS, specially swimming: I've been doing competition since I was 9. I really enjoy nature and going hiking to the mountains, and swimming in lakes and rivers, feeling nature directly on my body. I love learning from people, from new experiences. I love talking, and talking, but also listening to.

PHILOSOPHY

I live life proactively. I want to build my way to my own happines, I want to learn as much as I can from every stimulus that arrive to my receptors all around my body. I believe strongly in SCIENCE, it is what leads my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted in Thessaloniki and Athens (Greece), Luxembourg, Frankfurt, (Germany), Rotterdam, Haarlem and Texel (The Netherlands), Paris (France).

I haven't hosted yet because I am living with my parents and grandmother near in Barcelona with no spare room.. I'll try as soon as I get independent haha

Interests

I love outdoor sports, specially swimming. I love nature and healthy habits while I feel in touch with all is surrounding me. I also like very much talking to people, listening and learning as much as I can from the others. I love Science and Medicine, and talking about life and why are we here in this world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Lots! I love all films by Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman. I love culture and almost all kind of music, specially jazz and pop-rock. I love Coldplay, but I also like going dancing SALSA! I think Latin music is the best to go dancing to discos ;) Concerning books, I don't find enough time, as I have to study a lot and I usually have enough with that :P

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming 16km along the Ebro river for 2h.
All CS experiences.
Camino de Santiago for a week.

Teach, Learn, Share

I offer my energy, my little knowledge about few places I have visited, my aim to find myself in this caotic world. I can share my happiness when I am having a good conversation, my smile, my shiny eyes when I hear something I find really surprising and amazing. I just want to be happy while I can make happy the others.
