About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Right now my mission is get through Philipinnes for 24 days spending 500 pisos each day. I have already travelled in extreme backpacking conditions but never for such a long time. I like to taste the pure sensation of travelling...

ABOUT ME

I was born in the town of Santander in the north of Spain. So my life has always been linked to the sea. In my natural habitat i have my dog and my van, i usually like to go chilling on the seaside with friends, having a walk and talking about life. I consider myself an energic person since i like hiking, travelling, party, music... I like life. I think one has to live life without fear and follow his soul. I enjoy easy chat and carpe diem.

PHILOSOPHY

if you dont like it i can change it, just look for the right point of view, if something is hard is because you are doing something wrong...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a house in Santander and Madrid in Spain so i am able to host people in both places. I guarantee a good and funny experience ; )

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time using coach surfing. I came in September 2012 to china to expend 10 months and its been here that i found how useful is Couchsourfing. I never had a couchsurfing experience (i used to go directly to houses saying i dont have money nor place to sleep and asking for accomodation) and thats the way i used to do in short trips. Now for the first time im planning to visit Philipinnes for a long period so i want to try for first time cause everybody told me it is a very good experience

Interests

I am interested in books, music, i play guitar and piano (in my hometown i am in a punk band). I really enjoy easy things in life like love, friendship, eating, drinking, smoking... I used to be very interested to go deep in understanding the world but its useless in some aspects so now i guess just live and enjoy life the best way you can!!
