ABOUT ME
I am from the bright and shiny Málaga, south cost of Spain. I studied Physics in Granada (Spain) and Mathematical Engineering in Madrid (Spain). I studied a year in Leuven (Belgium) as Erasmus Student, and that was one of the greatest experiences in my life. I am sociable, I like to meet new people, but I also know how to enjoy the time alone. I'm very easy going, that said, please any problem or preferences, let me know. I consider myself a bit geek and nerd but in a good sense ;). The sterotypes doesn't fit me too well, as you can see, I'm physicist and sociable ;) .

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe it is a great way of expanding your knowledge, experience and mind. I love meeting new people, the more different (culture, lifestyle, view point) the better.

I don't currently have a house of my own and that is the main reason I can't host. Time to time I get to convince my parents to invite some of my international friends at my hometown, and that is the closest thing I do as hosting.

Interests

There are a lot of interesting things in life, some of my favorites are: reading; some books, experience and thoughts make me want to write, and that is other of my passion, which I try to improve every time.I love music, all kind of music, but mostly the one with a good melody and/or good lyrics (OSTs, Celtic, Rock, Pop...).

I'm Physicist, so I like science, most of all, I love Physics, learn and teach it. But basically, I like to learn about any kind of stuff.

I am a technology geek. I like to know what is new and if it's not too expensive and it's useful I like to have it. For instance, I am a common user of Hi-Fi forum.
I don't consider myself a gamer but I enjoy playing.

I like playing team sports, like volleyball or football (soccer). I like hiking, not as sport but as discovering and enjoying the beauty of nature.

I also enjoy playing board games and usually I bring with me some portable ones.

Martin), Ignorance (Milan Kundera), and currently I am reading and loving The Kingkiller Chronicle.

I am a TV Series fan, from Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, to The leftovers, Marvel series, Stranger Things or Sense8. To me, TV series are something between movies and books :) .

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My one year living in Leuven (Belgium) was great, I made there some of my greatest international friends, who are now all over the world. In Leuven, everyday, you could learn something from everywhere, because it has more than 150 different nationalities in a very small town. It is something that fascinated me :) .

Until two months ego I was working from Monday to Friday in Switzerland and I was getting a bit of the Erasmus experience again but in a work environment. And that made me choose to come to Dublin when I got a job offer.
