ABOUT ME

I am a very simple person, smiling, happy, I love adventures, walking, travelling, I love nature, animals, fruit, and passing time with good friends. I have a little daughter who comes with me wherever I go.

I am translator and in fact I like learning foreign languages and discover other cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea that I could travel everywhere on earth without spending a lot of money and knowing some people of these places who will let a memory that is much more interesting and living than if I had just been hosted in a hotel. On the other side I like hosting couchsurfers who can tell me about their experiences and life in another place and I love it when my home is full of life. Hosting couchsurfers of foreign places is like another way of travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:

I am really very open minded and like a lot of different types of music, as long as they are melodic. I like especially to discover new music types with my guests and exchange.

Some of my preferred types or musicians: latin rhythms, Piano Guys, Beatles, David Bowie, Chingón, Chopin, Bénabar, Joe Hisaishi, 77 Bombay Street, Cat Stevens, Pink Floyd, ...

Movies:

So many movies I like. Particularly the typical French Comedies such as Tais-toi, Chouchou, Les intouchables, La chèvre, Les valseuses, Les compères, ...
But also a lot of other movies, to give some examples: The Notebook, The Legend of 1900, A Clockwork Orange, Slumdog Millionnaire, Pulp Fiction, The Shining, The Green Mile, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, ...

Books :

Unfortunately I don't have so much time at the actual circumstances to read so each book takes me almost two months or even more to finish. Some books/authors I really like are:
Hermann Hesse, Das Parfüm (Süskind), The Animal Farm (George Orwell), Un viejo que leía novelas de amor (Sepúlveda), Le petit prince, I Am Malala, Capitães da Areia (Jorge Amado)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live toghether with my four years old daughter in a four piece apartment. My hosts can stay in a privative guest room with a bedsofa for two people. As I am very busy with work from Monday to Friday, they have to organize their days by themselves, but I can indicate some nice places to visit. On the weekend, we can go having some fun togheter and I'll show around the region.
