Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My objective is to travel a lot, to meet lots of new people and to learn how other cultures are to become more and more open-minded, and learn more about my own culture and about myself.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have couchsurfed (if that's even a verb ;) several times, once in Munich and the rest (3 times) in Vienna, all of them were a good experience I'd love to repeat.
I think it is a great way to getting to know new places and new people.
Interests
Cheese, food in general and animals (specially dogs :)

Music, Movies, and Books
Harry Potter💜 (First the books, then the movies. I'm a proud Hufflepuff)
Basically any book written by Khaled Hosseini (the kite runner, and the mountains echoed, a thousand splendid suns) and Julia Navarro. I like historic novels which can teach me about other cultures and past times, though I also enjoy "simpler" books just to spend time reading, for the joy of reading.
I don't have a defined music taste, I like everything that has lyrics that I can sing. My secret dream is to be able to sing opera one day (in my dreams I do sing quite well).
And movies...it will be easier if I say what I don't like. I don't like thrillers and horror movies, also I'm not quite good at understanding deep movies, simple comedies are my favourite. I don't like having to think much when I watch a movie (by the way: I cannot watch a movie and remain quiet, I need to comment every single detail. You'll probably hate me)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Living one year in Finland when I was 18 years old (far away from my family and friends). And I saw the northern lights in Lapland after visiting Santa Claus' home in Rovaniemi 🎅
Teach, Learn, Share
Well, I've worked as a sort of a Spanish teacher, if that counts.
I'm always willing to learn anything, specially cooking recipes 😸
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love cooking! I could make a"tortilla de patatas" (Spanish potato omelette) or any other dish if we had time (and ingredients!)
