CURRENT MISSION

getting radical all the time

ABOUT ME

I lead food tours, I love to eat, I like to cycle. Also, I like to travel--a lot. Been living in Spain since 2010 and exploring the homeland. I think you could say I am an environmentalist, but I don't really like defining myself. Very occasionally (almost never) I publish photos on the internet oliverlucasguardo.blogspot.com

PHILOSOPHY

Be conscientious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not a big fan of the dominant models of tourism. I dig the idea of meeting locals while seeing places and trusting strangers. This website is a wonderful way to bypass a lot of the mass tourism stuff and meet people and get a better feel for places you visit. I hope to be able to give CS guests a more realistic look at my interesting city.
