One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was 17 I played with my band in my hometown in front of 5000 people. We opened a fest for one famous band from Spain so there were a lot of people waiting for them, and meanwhile, listening to us!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can help you with music in general. I can show you some really good bands unknown for a lot of people, I can teach you how to play piano or guitar and I can help you with a lot of things that you need!
I like to cook, I can show you some wonderful meals from Spain!
Just ask and if I know how I will be pleased to help you!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can speak fluently Spanish, so I can help you with the third most spoke language.
Also I can play guitar and piano, and also some painting advice (basics).
