CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life, learn science, test my limits, travel and be happy!

ABOUT ME

I am a very easy going, relaxed and friendly person. I have a Master in Physics of Complex Systems, although I took a break from academia and I'm not sure if I will go back into it .

I consider myself as an outdoor person, I can not be far from nature for a long time, which does not mean that I can not enjoy from what a big city has to offer.

I like to test my limits practicing extreme sports, Freediving and Skydiving are among my passions. Hiking in the mountains makes me feel happy and free, I enjoy dancing and teaching how to dance salsa music. I try to practice yoga frequently, but not always succeed.

I love sharing histories and experience with other people and I try to enjoy life as much as I can!

PHILOSOPHY

So far we know life is short and one, happiness is an easy word to say and pronounce, but no so easy to achieve. Every second we live is an amazing opportunity to achieve this goal

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed and hosted. Since I left my home country I have attended some Couchsurfing meetings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed some couches in South America, and I try to host people every time I can. I have attended Couchsurfing meetings in Europe and Indoneasia.

Interests

A lot of different things!

Traveling for sure!

Interacting with people from different backgrounds than mine.

As I said before I love hiking, scuba diving, freediving, skydiving, practicing yoga among others.

I enjoy reading a good book or watching a good film, sharing time with friends and dancing salsa.

I love to learn and discuss about history and science, specially physics and biology.

Music:
I prefer not labeling myself in a given kind of music. Depending on my mood I enjoy from Punk Rock, Alternative Rock, Soul, Jazz, Salsa, Tango, Bossa Nova, "Son Cubano", Gypsies music to Classical Music.
But if I have to choose a band that I have liked since the first time listened until now, I will go for RANCID.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Although perhaps the most amazing thing a human being could do is just keep breathing, because it means that we are alive, I feel inclined to mention some of the things that have made me really happy.

Jumping out from a plane and learn how to fly.
The silence and peace you feel when free-falling below 20 meters underwater.
Sleeping at the top of the Preikestolen (Norway) just with my sleeping bag and the most amazing view.
The northern lights.
Teaching how to dance salsa to orphan children in the Seychelles.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach spanish, a bit of science, how to dance Salsa, freediving and climbing trees.

I would love to learn BASE Jumping, how to fly a wing suit. Enjoy more the present and appreciate more the little details in life. Being fluent in German and French. Statistical physics. Learn to free dive to 100 m depth.

I can share stories, experiences, my house, my food, my ideas and love.
