Overview
About Me
Probably the best definition for me would be a crazy easy-going guy who loves the outdoors. I am not really good describing myself, I think that to know somebody you just have to spend time with her/him but what I can ensure you is that I would be done to do almost everything.
I am really open-minded and I want to meet new people, I love hearing about the different stories, dreams and thoughts. I love interesting and smart people who have different perspectives of the world. I usually wonder this kind of things and the best way is doing with somebody while sharing a good drink and meal (better if it is a local and typical meal of the place I am exploring).
As I said before I love the outdoors, I love being outside, everywhere and everything. I love the sports. I played soccer for a long time, however I am not really good haha. Nowadays I run, cycle when I am at home, surf (at home), snowboard (wherever/whenever I have the chance), climb (wherever/whenever I have the chance), spearfish (at home) and I also practice scuba-dive ( I want to do it more frequently and one day get the rescue and professional certificate).
I have just graduated in Marine Science degree and I am currently pursuing a marine biology masters in Faro (Portugal). So yes, I love the sea and everything related. Of course I love animals, all kind of animals! However, I am not a good fan of the snakes haha.
Of course, I love travelling, however I didnt spend too much time outside of Spain cause 90% of my trips were bikingtrips with my dad around Spain and Portugal (someday will make it to Iceland).
But I think I am starting in this travel thing. Some trips I have done made me change and broad my mind to limits I could not even think of. California, coast San Francisco to San Diego, Hawaii, Transpirinair bikesolotrip, Faroe Islands, Morocco surf trip... (.) Travel is -almost sure- the best opportunity to learn, get experience and adventures and meet new people, so...LETS FLY!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think couchsurfing is a good way to find and meet new people who can show you how different is the world and the people outside, get soaked into new cultures and traditions, new languages and gorgeous places. It isn't just about meet random people, is about learning from them, is about the experience, the feeling of sharing with a stranger the things, feelings, thoughts that you would share with your friend, cause maybe he/she/they will be one your bests friends.

Teach, Learn, Share
I think I am not a really good professor but if you are a good pupil you can learn really cool things from me.
I could teach you how to make a fire, a cabin, climb trees, do stupid things.
I can also teach you some Spanish and Galician.
I can share with you my ``Pinche tortilla´´- Named in my first couchsurfing experience.

Incredible moments that host won't forget. I am a funny person who is always doing things.
