Overview
About Me
I'm 22 years old. I was born in Sestao (Biscay) and I study Economics.
Since I started the University I wanted to travel as much as I wanted and thanks to my sister and one friend of mine, I had the opportunity to live the experience of Couchsurfing, the first time in Inverness (Scotland) and last year in London. I loved both trips and learnt that each trip supposed a different kind of experience and also different kind of guesses. Each trip asks us to take different types of activities with our host, but always remembering the most important things, friendship and positiveness, 0 pressure.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
After having experienced two times this way of travelling I think that is the right moment to start this experience by myself, so here I am. Travelling is more than visiting different places, you need to know the people for the country you are visiting to know in the best way what you are seeing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I travelled through all the High Lands in Scotland in a car, I went hiking to 3 alps when I was in Milan during my Erasmus, and right now my idea is to travel by car from the North coast of Portugal till the frontier with the South of Spain.
Teach, Learn, Share
I always enjoy teaching some words in my second mother language, Basque which is the official language of my region in Spain, The Basque Country. Right now I am not able to share a place in my flat because there is no empty space hahaha but I always invite my Couchsurfing hosts to visit me again.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Despite at the beginning it may not be seen like that, I am a good cook, so I always try to make my best Spanish omelette or whatever the host asks me :).
I also enjoy inviting my host to a beer, because there is nothing better than a relaxing talk with a beer among unknown people.
