About Me

To keep things short, I'm just going to say I'm a very laid-back guy who enjoys getting lost in a new city, meeting strangers while having a beer, visiting art exhibitions or going to concerts, but mostly having deeply absurd conversations or really meaningful ones. I like to talk about art, politics, society, philosophy, science... I believe the best conversations are those in which you learn something new.

Although I'm quite open minded and generally I love to discuss anything with people with whom I might not share points of view, it's important to note I'm quite left-leaning and the one thing I do not tolerate is discrimination in any shape or form.

Last but not least, although right now it's not possible for me to host anyone at my place as I'm currently staying with my parents, I'm planning on moving out soon and when I do, you'll be more than welcome to come visit me in Barcelona if you wish :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What most attracts me about Couchsurfing is the possibility to meet new people who you might not have the chance to meet otherwise and getting to discover new cities from the point of view of the local hosts.

I usually travel alone, as I'm more of an introvert person (which does not mean shy!) and I'm used to doing many things by myself. But travelling alone can get a bit boring sometimes, so any opportunity to meet local people to go out for a drink is welcome.

Music, Movies, and Books

Unfortunately I don't read or watch as many movies as I would like to, but to name just the first things that come to my mind, I'll say Jodorowsky's The Holy Mountain, and anything by Herman Hesse.

Music-wise it's quite the opposite, I listen to many different things so I cannot point out any specific favourites. But for the sake of filling this up I'll say anything with a psychedelic vibe.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would say I'm a pretty decent cook, so I would be more than happy to cook for you (vegetarian).

Other than that, I know a thing or two about craft beer, so if you're into trying new beer I can bring you a bottle or two to share. But if you're more into red wine, I'm fine to share a bottle with you too!

Needless to say, I will for sure help with the cleaning duties, and I will not stand in your way if you're too busy to spend time with me!
