About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meeting like-minded people, discussing, sharing, making my small contributions to make the world a better place for everyone.

ABOUT ME

I am a Spanish and English teacher, I love working with young people , and I am also a student for eternity, I always learn, this is my hobby. I am a bit introvert, but I know that conversations are knowledge in the making, and I love participating in discussions. I have my opinions, but not obsessions.

PHILOSOPHY

Deferto neminem - a latin phrase that means "accuse no one".

I believe in order and responsibility and self-discipline.

Doing what you enjoy is luck. To enjoy what you do is happiness. Happiness is only worthy when you have someone to share with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host as well as travel sometimes, I find this initiative great and very humane, through which we can return to our normal selves and just be open and kind to other people without interests and expectations.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never enough, I have traveled and been guest and also hosted, all off them have turned out to be wonderful experiences.

Interests

All that is visible and beyond. I want to create memories.

  • literature
  • traveling
  • teaching
  • debating

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Rock, Metal, gothic, industrial, new age, folk. Anything that's unusual.

I like authors like Thomas Mann, Tolkien, David Mitchell, Haruki Murakami, García Márquez, Shakespeare, John Milton, etc.

My all-time fav is Thomas Mann's Joseph and his Brothers. A 1500 page-long foray into the mysteries of human dignity.

I like poetry and I'm VERY interested in literary criticism.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teaching, seeing other people achieve their goals. OrganizingComenius and Erasmus+ exchange projects with my school, visiting other schools, hosting several students and make wonderful projects with amazing colleagues and kids from around Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach and honestly I learn more than my students...
