I love people. I am truly fascinated by people and their stories, lives, experiences. That makes me someone who is probably genuinely insterested in you - whomever you might be -. I am crazy about travelling, cooking/food, cats and books (total cliché, I know), and I like playing the guitar and singing at home, even though I don't think I'm specially good at it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always loved travelling. More than seeing places, I'm totally in love with people and travelling seems to be the best way of truly knowing them in all parts of the world. I've had the opportunity to travel to some places where the culture was totally different from mine and I've learned a lot from it. The best of travelling is that as we feel open-hearted (more than open minded) and people's attitudes towards us usually follows the same path. It's also great to be able to share my culture and experiences with the world, whether by hosting os being hosted or just explaining people stuff about my country, language and culture. :)
