I am a student in economics. I really like how this subject analyses social phenomena from a rigorous perspective, but keeps a social relevance to the debate.

I love to sail, swim and do whatever you can name that is related oceans and water. I also play violin and piano. I run marathons and explore montains with my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be attending a summer school offered by Oxford University in Marrakech about poverty indicators. However, as long as I study I prefer to save, and I can do it either in the easy way by just picking a hostel, or I can do it in the fun way, that is by meeting a local in Marrakech and get to know their culture.
I have already visited Marrakech and loved it, but since I have more time I would like to scratch the surface a bit more.

Teach, Learn, Share
