Overview
About Me
Quiet yet curious, I love to travel, the feeling of freedom my backpack gives me, the small unplanned moments and unexpected experiences off the beaten track, or when you take a chance on a new friend. I like to hear the local music, taste the local food and learn about whats important in the different cultures and for the individuals that I encounter. I am very very laid back, sensitive and polite.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to see places with a local, looking for true immersion. Or host people that are interested in my city, especially in the local live music scene.
Interests
I go to local and small music concerts. If you want to sample some of the local music then let me know. I practice yoga, the classes i go to in Madrid are in english, vinyasa flow (join me if its your thing). I like to hike in the nearby mountains (big hills), its a 1 hour train/bus ride to get there. And the micro theatre here, its only 4€ for 20 minutes, a good way to practice spanish.
