About Me

I love to go with the flow and nice people.

Also social justice (I think everyone has to take on the quest of making our societies a better place, I think communitarism is the way), politics music, cinema, plants, history, arts, languagues and...philosophy. I love getting new teorethical tools and aproacches to the comprehension of our modern society and its history. I study Philosophy in Madrid.

I love to listen and learn as much as I can of everyone I share with. I think there is always something to learn from each one. I am easily fascinated by lots of things! Among them, by those small windows to other worlds and lifes that are opened when you couch in someone's house.

I carry a small chess board around. I'm not that good, but I'm trying to improve my play, would love to share a game :)

_______________
Me gusta fluir y la buena gente.

También la justicia social, el cine, las plantitas, los idiomas, la filosofía... Estudio filosofía en Madrid.

Soy una persona a la que le gusta muchísimo escuchar y aprender todo aquello que pueda de las personas con las que comparto. Me fascino rápidamente por casi todo. También me fascinan esas ventanitas a otros mundos cotidianos que se generan en los encuentros fugaces de couchsurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Para compartir con gente diferente, aprender de ellos. Viajar es vivir un lugar y sus gentes. Contra el turismo.

To share with different people and learn from them. To travel is to live a place and its people. Against tourism.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm into folks as Mark Fisher, Foucault, Adorno, Marx, Hegel, Malevich, the surrealist crew, situacionism and the Wertkritik. Still got a LOT to learn on them!

Cinema? Tarkovsky, Mikhail Kalatozov, Marguerite Duras, Jacques Tati, Antonioni, Ozu, Mizoguchi..

Electronic music, postpunk, ambient, shoegaze, reggaeton, dark wave, cumbia, flamenco, bachata, boleros, bossa-nova, jazz...those are my vibes! Actually, I dig (almost) all kind of genres.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

En 2019 me pasé un mes viajando por Sicilia con una amiga y eternamente agradecida a los maravillosos couchsurfers que nos acogieron en Catania, Siracusa y Ragusa.

In 2019 I spent a month travelling around Sicily with a friend and it was incredible. I'll be forever grateful to the marvelous couchsurfers that hosted us in Catania, Siracusa and Ragusa. Regards to Elena, Alessandro and Marcello!

In 2022 I crossed France hitchhiking with another friend. One of the most beautiful experiences of my life.
