About Me

I am biologist.
I really love being biologist, my favorite animals are salamanders so much so that I did my bachelor thesis about salamanders and I am still working on them (research).
I could say that I'm shy at the beginning but after getting to know people i almost never stop to talk. I am open minded to every reasonable conversation topic.
Since I am new using CS i havent gotten references yet, but I have hosted some friends I have met on my trips, I mostly travel by myself, I like doing this because there are more opportunties to know more people and make friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I want to meet people from different cultures, to hanging out, knowing each other, exchanging experiences, etc :)

Interests

Biology, psycology, neuroscience.
Also I love to watch old movies 50's, 60's. Scorsese, Tarantino, Kubrick, Hitchcock, Lars von Trier movies. Etc etc.
I like old-classic music too :P
Field trips, take a bus, train, car, plane or any kind of transport and go to anywhere.

Music, Movies, and Books

Pink Floyd is my favorite band and Spinetta, Syd Barret and Kurt Kobain are my favorites artist, I also like the beatles, the doors, some rock spanish bands, etc.
I prefer read before to see the movie, recently my favorite book is The double from Saramago and the movie Enemy, both of them very good.
Another fav books: The God delusion, The selfish gene (Any Dawking's books).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have camped in uninhabited islands for longer than 2 months, it implies no fresh water (Only to drink), scant fresh food, in this new era NO INTERNET (even though I really didnt neet it), none kind of communication (only satellital phone for emergencies) and the most beautiful landscapes you can imagine.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am not a spanish teacher but I can help you with some vocabulary and things that I know about gramma.
I dont ask people to teach me english or german because as me I know that you all are not language teachers. If you offer me help I would be glad but wont abuse your help of course. I prefer to study by myself with a bit of help sometimes.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share you my experiences and whatever you want to know about my Country (Ecuador). I can share some of my thoughts too, good and funny moments.

Belarus, Colombia, Peru, Russian Federation, Spain, United States
