I am a very friendly and open-minded guy that loves travelling (so like 99.9999999 % of the users here). Something that characterises me is that I can adapt to many different situations and groups of people, I always do my best to respect their opinions as long as they are constructive.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I really enjoy meeting people of different countries in the world, and I think the people here and me share a lot of thoughts in common. In fact, there is no better way of getting to know an area but through the knowledge and wisedom of local people :)

Before signing in this webpage, I did it with a couple of people and it worked perfectly, so I can't wait for more.

Intereses

Obviously travelling. I can't leave long if I don't go to the mountains. I'm not the best hiker, but I do love walking around nature. I also love reading, and I'm always open to suggestions about what to read. Of course, I couldn't do without music either, I play the piano and sing a little bit, and I love listening to nice tunes (especially world music), it always cheers me up.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Sleeping (be back) on an Icelandic beach (Westfjords) in a summer night while watching some Northern lights.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I basically enjoy teaching and learning from other people. Every person that we meet in this world has something to teach us.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I am very grateful for any help. I will compensate it with cooking and helping at home (and if I'm coming straight from the Basque Country, I'll probably bring some food along ;)
