CURRENT MISSION

To permanently believe in the good of people.

ABOUT ME

I'm 25 years old, gay, bike-person, cochlear implanted, and trying to drop the sense of belonging to a nation. I like to laugh without reason, walk barefoot on the grass, and eat homemade mayonaise with bread.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This past year I tried to give a new twist to my notion of hospitality and fight against the inflexibility of the western private/public border. I started hosting people that I knew little, and I ended up hosting people that I didn't even know (not through couchsurfing unfortunately). Needless to say some of them are now some of my best friends.

I guess couchsurfing is the next step forward. I'm not able to host anymore but I feel that now is my turn to surf.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

- I taught how to write spanish to a brave berber woman for three months in exchange of cous-cous (berber: north-african ethnic group who speak a language with no written form)

- I ate almost half of a kilo of condensed milk in one sitting (Actually I do that very often, but I'm trying to control it)

- I co-organised the gay pride of my hometown sticking posters around the city with a picture of two lesbians kissing in front of the cathedral of my hometown with a rainbow flag on top.

- I hitchhiked about 700km during two days.

- I went to London from Spain by train and boat, bought a bicycle, and went to The Netherlands to use it.

- I learnt how to massage from a filipino massage parlor in Manila

- I asked to a Chinese buddhist god to find a good husband for my Chinese friend in a taiwanese temple. I had to learn how to pray for it.

- I spent a whole day photographing 300 students of a school of a small island in The Philippines in order to create their IDs

- I went to Malaysia by myself, met a Sudanese guy in Kuala Lumpur and moved to his house for a few days.
