CURRENT MISSION

Discovering California and nearby States.

ABOUT ME

Born in Madrid, in 1980, I moved to Germany at the age of 9, where I went to an International School. At the age of 14 I moved back from Frankurt to Madrid. I graduated in Marketing and Business in Madrid, and after that I wanted a change in life so moved from the busy city of Madrid to the small city of Málaga, in the South Coast of Spain. I have always enjoyed travelling, and have visited quite a few countries in Europe as well as other continents. Due to Spain's sickly economy, facing a terrible financial crisis, I have decided to travel around the United States, to meet new people and get a breath of fresh air.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let die!

Dance like nobody's watching,
Love like you've never been hurt,
Sing like nobody's listening.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am absolutely new to CouchSurfing, and was introduced to this through a friend. Right now I look forward to doing a bit of couchsurfing in the United States, and once I am back from my trip I will be able to offer my couch to others!
