Hi, I'm Nerea, I've been traveling since 2017. For two years I traveled through most of Asia and after the pandemic I lived in Norway for another two years. I connected Vietnam with Spain by hitchhiking and after that I sailed from Spain (Canary Islands) to the Caribbean, and from El Salvador to French Polynesia.

The purpose of my trip is to immerse myself in different cultures to break with the normalized rules of my society, to be more critical and to understand others better. I want to observe and destroy my stereotypes and prejudices, grow up with the idea that nothing is normal and develop tools to be more free. To live different types of routines and enjoy the diversity and multiculturalism of things, people and situations.

( I like have conversations about culture, society, science, politics, religions, activism, art, feminism, climate, ecology, feelings and emotions, whatever that passionate you, strange adventures, humour, flavors, smells, cooking...).

Hola, soy Nerea, llevo viajando desde 2017. Durante dos años recorrí la mayor parte de Asia y tras la pandemia estuve viviendo otros dos años en Noruega. Conecté Vietnam con España en autoestop y España con el Caribe y desde El Salvador hasta Polinesia Francesa.

El propósito de mi viaje es sumergirme en diferentes culturas para romper con las reglas normalizadas de mi sociedad, ser más crítico y entender mejor a los demás. Quiero observar y destruir mis estereotipos y prejuicios, crecer con la idea de que nada es normal y desarrollar herramientas para ser más libre. Vivir diferentes tipos de rutinas y disfruta de la diversidad y multiculturalidad de las cosas, personas y situaciones.

(Me gusta tener conversaciones sobre cultura, sociedad, ciencia, política, religiones, activismo, arte, feminismo, clima, ecología, sentimientos y emociones, lo que sea que te apasione, aventuras extrañas, humor, sabores, olores, cocina...).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Is the only way.

I think thats the better way to know people and places and to be infused in the culture. That gives you the possibility of travel serenely, slow, and gives you a lot of experiences and knowledge.

Also I want to give an opportunity to travel for everyone, independently of their economical situation.

Es la única manera.

Creo que esa es la mejor forma de conocer personas, lugares y fundirse en la cultura. Proporciona la posibilidad de viajar serena, lentamente, dándote muchas experiencias y conocimientos.

También quiero dar la oportunidad de viajar a otras, independientemente de su situación económica.

Interests

I enjoy profoundly a good conversation, sports, art, multicultural stuff, and I really really love multicultural food and different flavors. It's a pleasure to breath when I'm in the right place.

I love also photography, you can visit my Flickr profile:
