About Me

I'm one of the many Spaniards living abroad, currently living in Scotland but I've lived in Portugal and Poland before that. I love the nature in all its forms, I am an enthusiastic hiker and I enjoy meeting people.

One of the reasons I travel is to discover new cultures, and I believe that you can learn a lot of a culture through their cuisine. I like to think that I am a good cook, and I am definitely a good eater.

I work in Science and I practice sports like swimming, football, snowboard and scuba diving.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After living in 4 different countries I've developed a kind of need to meet international people and travellers. I like to show around the region where I live, and I would like to explore new regions with native or residents from the places I shall visit in the future.

I believe that the best way to truly visit somewhere is with the advice of someone who knows the area, and I hope Couch surfing will allow me to meet people both in my own town and wherever I travel next.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a reggae fan, and I like lots of other styles too.

Last book I've read was The Girl on the train, not my favourite but entertaining.

I don't have a favourite movie, but if I have to choose I'd say that all the BBC wildlife documentaries are brilliant :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've dived with +5m wide manta rays during a month trip around Indonesia, and it was pretty amazing
