Overview
About Me
I studied for five years a degree in History and right now I am studying cultural and politics studies during XX century. Plus, I´ve done a master in education to become a history teacher in a high school but my main goal it would be to be a researcher at college.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is a good chance to live all kind of things without spending too much money and at the same time it's a great oportunity to share and learn about others cultures.
Interests
I love everything related to culture. Meet new places and new people is one of my favorite activities. So traveling is one of my great passions. I consider nature as a must in today's world and one of my hobbies is getting lost in some place in which to find yourself.
I like reading, movies and everything that has to do with culture . I am passionate about studies of working class and sindicalism.
Among my hobbies leisure could not miss the sport. I love to exercise outdoors and even more if this related to nature.
Of course, party, friends and good music is a perfect combination for me!

Music, Movies, and Books
I could say as one of my favourites movies "The Godfather", "Scarface" and all Tarantino's movies. Also I like Stanley Kubrick and Luis Buñuel.
I love so much tv series like "Game of Thrones", "The Sopranos", ""The Wire" "Mad Men" "House of cards" or "Breaking bad".
Among the books I really like read so many books about politics or
classic of history or politic philosophy for example by Eric Hobsbawn, Noam Chomsky or Slavoj Zizek aswell. And also classic novels like Lolita or books of Stefan Zweig.
I like all kind of music but I am not an expert, maybe rock is my favourite genre. In Spain, any bands like Ska-P or Marea are very interesting because they play a alternative music and many letters about political issues and current social problems.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Staying for three months in US and travelling around the East Coast. It was a great experience!
I also travelled during ten days around Germany and Belgium only with my bag. It was a marvelous experience where I could meet many interesting people from all the world.
But my most interesting experience was the volunteriing I made in Palestine with a NGO'S.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could have a conversation about current history and political issues for hours.
I like learning about other people, meet your experiences and your cultures.
For me one of most amazing things is share and learn with friends or people all kind of things. I always said that having a good talk is the best learning.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I've been living in a flat with other people in States and Madrid, they were from different nacionalities and that was cool!! Living with other people let to develop new social skills and you can open your mind. Now I am living alone but I try to meet people around as possible.
I would like to share stories and experiences with hosts having a drink or enjoying a tasty meal. I can make a good conversation, cooking some good to share with a glass of wine and above all I will be adequate, thankful, polite and happy to meet new people invited. Besides I will do my best to have a good time!!
