About Me

CURRENT MISSION

...

ABOUT ME

I'm my older sisters' little sister. I grew up between my father's electric workshop and the square next to my home, watching 80's British sitcoms and reading Enid Blyton's and Michael Ende books.
That and some more things made me as I am nowadays. The Spanish program "1,2,3" and Michael Jackson

PHILOSOPHY

Responsibility and simplicity. We're all together in that hard world, we're all adults (well, children are not, yet) and, thanks to I don't know which organ, we can speak, so we can treat us as human beings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've had many couchsurfing experiences before entering as a member. I often host friends at home when they come to Barcelona and have been hosted by friends and friends' friends several times in France, Portugal, Scotland... I also met many couchsurfers at friends' houses. I think it's one of the best ways to know places.

Interests

Learning things, many kinds of things. That's why I like reading, travelling and meeting people.
Cooking, long good conversations, learning languages, the sci-fi, cinema, society, plants, amazing things...

Music, Movies, and Books

It depends on the moment. I like happy music when I'm sad: mexican, cuban, african, spanish, balcanic music, rock and roll...and dramatic music when I'm sad: Juan Manuel Serrat, Jacques Brel, Edith Piaf, Chavela Vargas, boleros, flamenco...I like dancing: rock and roll, rumba, reggae, electronika, 80's...When I'm working, the music changes with my project. I usually listen to 2 or 3 artists during one project.El cielo sobre Berlín, Old boy, el verano de Kikujiro, Hanna bi, Pi, Aguirre la cólera de Dios, Ordet, El séptimo sello, la fuga de Logan...Miguel de Unamuno, Juan Marsé, Miguel Delibes, García Marquez, some Spanish poets, Dostoievski, Isaac Asimov, Orson Scott Card... the last one: "Leonora" Leonora Carrington's biography. Love it!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've ridden an elephant and played with him in a suspicious river. I've also managed that Kunde takes the handle of the door when he wanted to go out (but only twice).

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm especially interested in learning how to ride a horse and to sail a boat, if someone could help me...
I can teach good Spanish jokes (and some French ones), how to cook the best tortilla de patatas (my mother's)...
