About Me

I am an extroverted person aiming to get to travel and getting to know people and learn from their cultures.
I'm from Barcelona, but since I was a kid, my parents took me to travel around the world.

I love being outside, and science is one of my passions! That's why I studied Marine Sciences, and now I'm specializing in the polar regions. For now, I attempted to go to different places along the Arctic, for both studies and joy travel. Yet, Antarctica is still on the list, and I hope to go there in the following years!

Sport, in particular athletics, has also been a very important part of my life. For 6 years, I have been granted as a high-performance athlete. However, now I swept my interest in the mountains. When I have free time, I practice trail running, hiking and alpinism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new on this social platform. I find it an amazing way to get to know people's culture, food, traditions and their every-day-life from the first-hand experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a big fan of music, and I listen to a bit of everything. From Catalan music groups, indie, pop, big pieces of classic music, dance and electric, or even movie soundtracks.
The rhythm of movies is too fast for me, that's why when I have time I prefer to enjoy TV-series.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was a kid we took a van with my parents and spend 6 months crossing Europe and Asia, going from our home in Barcelona to Singapur.

Teach, Learn, Share
