ABOUT ME
I'm an ever evolving person. I think that's a path that never ends. That has nothing to do with perfection but with our right to achieve happiness.
I believe in empathy, tolerance, respect and a good sense of humor as the true foundations of human relation-ships.

There are about 7.000.000.000 points of view on our planet.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I like to know all kinds of people, to learn from them and to share something with them- a laugh, a tale, a meal ,a movie, music you've never heard of, help to move a couch...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm couchsurfing actively and crazy about it- I'm meeting the most interesting people.
Interests
Cinema, books, comic-books, guitar, one-way tickets, nature- I like good stories, no matter the way they're told. I write. I don't dare to call myself a writer yet.
Since I've been travelling a lot lately, I've developed an insane, yet uncultivated passion for architecture.

Music, Movies, and Books
OldBoy & Vertigo- Best two films for me.
From some time now, Into the Wild and The Motorcycle Diaries have a vital importance to me- I'm on the road!
I literally watch everything I can, I'm deeply in love with movies- I want to make a short one now, screenplay ready.
I listen to all kinds of music -I really do, I'm not just saying-. But there's an epic and sacred place in my heart for Metal. Up the Irons! Being addicted to cinema, I like good soundtracks too.
Regarding books, right now I'm another victim of George R. R. Martin. Currently reading My Name is Red, from Orhan Pamuk, amazing book so far (and I got it in Istanbul, what makes it even more interesting).
Favourite books? I Am Legend, Solaris, Dune, The Anubis Gates, The Day of the Jackal, Last Call, The Fight Club and many more. I really like short-stories too.
Some significant information: H.P. Lovecraft was the guy who made me say "Let's write!". Robert E. Howard had quite a lot to do with that too.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Just one?
Sunset from a plane over Northern Europe, Eilean Donan (there can be only one!), that awesome road from the Highlands to Glasgow, a warrior princess on a white horse on a sunny morning at Christiania, The Milky Way over Formentera, the castle of a 19th Century Scottish adventurer, Transylvania, magic Istanbul, Alexander The Great sarcophagus, BULGARIA (yep, in capital letters), the coolest monument I've ever seen at Veliko Tarnovo, many more and many to come.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you Spanish, the basics of writing- if you don't know how and I do know please ask. And please expect the opposite!
I enjoy sharing good stories, personal philosophies, new music- most of all, I like to exchange "cinema knowledge" and to talk about movies.
