CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to go to at least one country each year. The world is big.

ABOUT ME

According to my friends, I am a kind and nice person with a good sense of humour. Some see me as a social animal who like partying, others think I work too hard, spending far more time than strictly necessary in the library. I hope they are both right.

I have just started film-making and hope one day I could direct my own documentaries. There is much we need to learn from the world and the untold stories around us.

In terms of languages, I speak Spanish, English and Mandarin. But I can read traditional Chinese and my next language will probably be Arabic.

When I am not partying or in the library, which surprising happens quite a lot, I enjoy reading, music, jumping out of an aeroplance (with a parachute, obviously) or going down deep and dark caves.

PHILOSOPHY

He who does not understand how the world unfolds does not know who he is.

Learn like you live hundreds of years and enjoy life as if you die tomorrow.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing should not be seen as a cheap alternative to hostels. The people we meet when traveling are much more important.

Interests

Mmm... Where can I start...

It's probably easier to recount what I do not like. I do not like staying in my room all day for no good reason; I do not like binge drinking or going to clubs that are far too crowded and noisy.
