About Me

27 year old catalan girl who’s right now living in Belgium.
I really like to learn new languages and more about other cultures. Since I started my exchange experience for a year (in the beautiful Netherlands), I've realized that meeting people from other countries and other backgrounds could be very satisfying because you learn that your point of view about the world is not the only one.
In my free time I like to watch movies/series, ride my bike or go hiking.
I hate crowded places and when I travel I try to not behave like a typical tourist, I prefer to meet people of the place that I'm visiting and to be another one of the country. This is how you can get to know a site better, as if you were a local.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As I've said before, the best way to explore and know another country and another culture is to stay with locals and to know what they really do in their life. If you behave like a tourist you are only going to know tourist places and you are going to miss a lot of things.

Interests

I travel a lot when I can.
I don't drink a lot of alcohol but I really like Belgian beers and Vino do Porto.
I really like to cook and I always try to create meals with the ingredients that i have.

  • beer
  • travel
  • food
  • biking
  • party
  • pizza
  • series and movies

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Boy Pablo, Arctic Monkeys, The Maccabees, Inner Wave, FUR (among others). And some catalan music too such as El Petit de cal Eril, Ferran Palau, Carlota Flaneur...

Films: I don't know why but, I prefer to watch three chapters of a serie than watching a film. Don't ask my why 🙃 But if I have to say one: Amelie.

I also love photography and I have and analogue cam which always travels with me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think that i haven't done anything amazing but I'm not very lucky and a lot of things have happened to me, so i have a lot of experiences to explain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you more about my culture and languages (Catalan/Spanish), share with you my view of the world and I'd like to learn everything about hosts or other couchsurfers.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can spend a nice time together and I can teach you how to cook Spanish food.
