About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travel through as many countries all over the world as my time on earth gives me!!!
ABOUT ME
Well, I'm not quite good at giving a good description about myself but I guess if there's something I can point out about me is that I'm a real lover about all the sort of experiences that can provide me a fulfilling sentation inside myself. In between these things, I'm particularly fond of travelling and making new acquaintances, share a good conversation, explore and dig on different cultures and specially, try to learn as much as I can from the experience. One of my main beliefs are that trading knowledges, by sharing your own tastes, your culture, roots,etc. by doing all this, your contribution to the world make paths narrower between people and can help to make a good approach and tear barriers down and make the people feel closer to each other.
When you travel, your spirit grows inside as well!!!
PHILOSOPHY
Life is a long journey that takes u far away from home and finally leads you to the exact place where you want to be.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Well, I haven't had any couchsurfing experiences so far. Most recent story I could have lived was not so far away but unfortunately for the guy who was going to spend some time here in my house I was nearly to leave for greece in order to start my period as erasmus student there so I couldn't host him in the end. But, anyway, I think he found someone else so everything was sort out successfully!!!
Interests
As I said on the first paragraph, I love travelling but besides this hobby, I have many other interests and fascinating things to do during my free time. My main passion in life is music, and by saying this one i don't talk only about listening to music but create music as well. Currently, I take part in one band composing and singing. However, this is not the only contribution that I offer to the world's music but much more. I started playing guitar 12 years ago and I learned on my how to play it and as the time went by I could get better and better, what, as a conclusion, leaded me to learn how to play a couple of instruments more such as piano and bass guitar. This fact provided me a wider vision at composing music and it keeps growing with the past of time while I try to learn more and more from different bands and music styles all over the world. Main references to me are straight linked with Brit Pop and Pop Culture but I'm also open to other styles such as Blues, Funk, etc.
Appart from this passion to the music, another favourite hobby that I'm hooked on is cinema. Watching films is another way to transport yourself to another world. It brings me most of the time the idea of another parallel world where everything's possible to reach. Normally, ordinary world gives u a negative concept about how life should be and nearly pushes u down until u almost see yourself crawling in a senseless life. But film almost gives u the chance to spread your wings and fly away.
And last of my passions, and one of the most important traveller's companion is books. It's one of the basic pillars and directly attached to a similar experience that travelling,music and films can give to you. As long as u have all of these pillars, the chances to grow up in a culturally, mentally and inspiring way will increase more and more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Well, I have not just one single memory in my life to point out but so many of them but if there are a few of them that I will always remember for the rest of my life. In between of them I can remark the following ones:
1 - The Archaic Monk Temples of Meteora in Greece. This visit have completely changed my life, just to be there standing in one of the most impressive scenarios my eyes have ever watched. These monuments are byzantine temples carved in stone in huge monoliths bigs as mountains (they can make u feel quite confused and astonished because they seem not to belong to the enviroment, and what's more, it's said that "Meteora" means "fallen from skies") Really impressive.
2 - Balos Bay. It took place the very last day before my departure back to Spain. I was living in Rethymno, Crete (Greece) and I had spent there two months working as public relations and waiter in one club. When my period was about to finish, I decided it was about time to make a proper approach to the island i had live nearly two months with no chance to have room for release myself. Then, I booked a bunch of excursions to different places in Crete and for sure, the last one was the very best. It turned out to be a huge bay on the northwest part of the island where your eyes attend to one of the most spectacular and colourful landscapes that water can offer you. Mixture of green-blue, deep blue, aquamarine blue,clear blue waters makes from this secret paradise suitable for swimming and delight yourself with the breathtaking views that this lovely place offers u. Forget about the caribbean the sea...if u really want to feel like in paradise, this is your place. ;)
