About Me

ABOUT ME

I think that I have an optimistic attitude towards life and I consider myself a liberal thinker.I can say that I am proud of my profession as I have been working more than 3o years in the intensive care unit as a doctor.This work and my personal experiences have made me look at the human beings in a different light.At the moment I am trying to fathom the sense of life taking delight in everything that makes me feel happy and beautiful.

PHILOSOPHY

It is imprescindible to find a sense of life "if you want to stay happy and not to get into a whingy mood".
Food for the body and soul!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend of mine, Joanna, has showed me the ropes .I founded it interseting and I decided to participate in this project.
Myself and Joanna have been travelling through Spain this year and I was very pleased with the way Couch surfers treated me.It does work!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As for the music, I like Yes(my favourite group alongside the Weather report).Having said that,I enjoy different music types.
I find the cinema, juxtaposition of the viniettes with the music and the dialoges, fascinating.I especially like to watch the movies by D.Lynch,D.Cronenberg,W.Allen,M.Scorsese,F.Copolla,C.Nolan,S.Kubrick,all the iconic names in the world of the cinema...., home productions as the ones of Trueba, Bunuel,Berlanga,Almodovar.....

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The word divorce has had a great influence upon my life
(strange and scary as it may seem).A divorce from my religious believes;a divorce from the orthodoxy and a divorce from the reins that have prevented me from being an owner of my time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would share my knowledge about what I have learnt through medicine.
