One of my main interests is music. Listening ,  playing or composing it. I play diatonic accordion which enables me to travel from Colombian music, via the Pyrenees to the Balkans. I have played also guitar, alto saxophone and I produce electronic music and rap instrumental music.

I’m very interested in topical current questions, politics, the history of the 20th century, social movements, natural environment, hiking, philosophy, literature and all kinds of audiovisual arts. I like readings, drawing and creating projects in my neighbourhood.

Education concerns me a lot, especially non-formal education, but also technological topics. I have studied computer science and I work in the area of computational linguistics. 

I’m driven to involve myself in the immediate surroundings, trying to change everything that I don’t like or that I consider unfair. I have taken part in the Catalan lay scout movement for many years.

I’m researching how to apply computational linguistic and artificial intelligence techniques to open data resources with the mission of building open government initiatives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have enjoyed some experiences through Couchsurfing, but never with my profile, always traveling with friends. I like to travel but I refuse to endorse the negative impact produced by it, mass tourism and ostentatious tourism. For this reason, I want to meet local people who live in each environment, discovering their histories and concerns.
