About Me

Adventurer :)

Apart from standing 170cm tall without shoes,
I'm a positively enthusiastic, polite and adventurous person. n.n
I live in a little city called Toowoomba, which is the biggest regional city in Queensland, Australia.
It's a lovely area, and close to Brisbane and the Eastern Coast.
Curiously, I've travelled greater distances and visited more major cities overseas than I have in my own country. Hopefully, I will travel more extensively through Australia in the future..

I'm a nomad in my spare time, and I love learning foreign languages, experiencing different cultures and expanding my perspective on our global community, whilst making new friends along the way. :)

Aparte de tener una estatura de 170cm sin zapatos,
Soy una persona amable, expresiva y aventurera. n.n
Vivo en una ciudad llamada Toowoomba, que es la ciudad regional más grande de Queensland, Australia.
Es una área bonita, y está cerca de Brisbane y la costa del este.
Es raro, pero he viajado más distancia y he conocido más ciudades majores en el extranjero que en mi propio país. Ojalá yo pueda viajar más por Australia en el futuro..

Soy nómada en mi tiempo libre, y me encanta aprender idiomas extranjeros, experimentar las culturas diferentes, y ampliar mi perspectiva de nuestra comunidad global mientras hacer amigos nuevos en mi camino. :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to connect and share with other people, from all over the globe, and to make new friends, wherever adventure takes me!

I spent over nine months in Canada, from June 2015 to March, 2016. The country was truly awe-inspiring, with both beautiful scenery and wonderful people. After that I spent two months in Europe and the UK, which was another wonderful experience that I will never forget. n.n

ESP:
Me gustaría conectarme y compartir con otra gente de todo el mundo, donde sea en mis aventuras. :)

He pasado mucho tiempo en Canadá, trabajando y viajando, de Junio 2015 a Marzo, 2016. El país era preciosa, con paisajes hermosos and gente maravillosa. También, he viajado dos meses en UK y Europa, y era otra experiencia maravillosa e inolvidable. n.n

Interests

Playing guitar, singing, martial arts, cycling, science, permaculture, art, eastern cuisine, theatre, performing, engineering, philosophy, Catholicism, veganism, foreign languages, etc.

Me encanta aprender, y ser un estudiante por la vida.
Creo que cada persona a que conocemos en nuestros caminos tiene algo único y especial para enseñarnos, y como joyas en el río, sus historias y sus experiencias son tesoro para mí. :)

Music, Movies, and Books

A Fortunate Life - A.B. Facey, The Father Brown Stories - G.K. Chesterton. Basically, any thing by John Le Carre, Tolkien, Chesterton, Kipling or Wilde.

I listen to all kinds of music, but I particularly love contemporary instrumental and classical guitar, a capella, post-rock and acoustic folk. Also, musical theatre!

Any film with Christopher Lee, Geoffrey Rush or Elijah Wood is a must-see.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran into Lake Ontario on New Year's Day (it was snowing), to raise funds for a humanitarian charity.

Yo corrí y entré el Lago de Ontario en el día del año nuevo (estaba nevando), para recaudar fondos para una caridad humanitaria.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm happy to sing a song or play a tune for any one, practise vegan culinary repetoire, and I'm always up for interesting conversations, sharing new experiences and learning new things!

If you're a visitor in the Toowoomba area, I'm more than happy to go sight-seeing and adventuring with you. :) Unfortunately, I can't host any-one between November and January, as I will be travelling. However, I can still try to get you a place to stay in Toowoomba, as I have many friends there.

ESP:

Estoy feliz de cantar o tocar un canción para todos, practicar cocina vegana, y siempre me llaman la atención las conversaciones interesantes, y también me encanta compartir experiencias nuevas y aprender cosas nuevas.

Si visitas la zona de Toowoomba, estaré más que feliz de salir y ver lo que sea contigo. Desafortunadamente, no estaré en casa durante Noviembre y Enero, porque estaré viajando. Sin cambio, todavía yo puedo ayudarte por encontrar acomodación, porque tengo a muchos amigos acá. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can practise Spanish and English with you, play music or sing for/with you. I'm also fairly handy with cleaning and cooking.

Most importantly, though, I have an extensive collection of cheesy jokes, with which I always manage to garner a smile. :)

ESP:

Yo puedo practicar español e inglés contigo, tocar música o cantar para ti/contigo. También soy útil en cocinar y limpiar.

Lo más importante es que tengo una colección extensiva de bromas cursis, que siempre sacan una sonrisa. :')
