About Me

CURRENT MISSION

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind

ABOUT ME

I'm not sure If I'm able to answer this question...I´m Galician and I've always liked growing, composing myself as an open-minded and worthy person. So, when I meet new people from other places, I feel a bit more near to that "ideal person" I would like to be.

I was born in Ourense, a very cosy city in the South of Galicia. Current affairs have always been a fascinating field for me, so I studied Journalism. I'm really interested in migrations.

PHILOSOPHY

Even If I used to plan and "predict" my future, nowadays I try to think just about present. While we think in the future, the present is vanishing...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because of the same reason than you...I suppose...

Interests

Long conversations and cosy pubs. Traditional dances, folk music, photography and nature.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don´t like comedies and I hate fiction films. I love real and non-typical stories (Beginners, Veronika decides to die, Medianeras, La bicicleta, Caramel, Une séparation...) and I don´t like having favourite directors. Nevertheless, If I had to choose one, I would say Isabel Coixet's films.

Nowadays I'm not so interested in novels than I used to. Lately I'm concentrated on essays, most of them written by journalists (Maruja Torres, Olga Rodríguez, Neil MacFarquhar...)

About music...I love traditional music, but also listen other styles...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
