Hi there!

I am Celia, and I come from Almería, a tiny but beautiful place on the south-east of Spain. I am currently living in Madrid. I am an easy-going people :). Love to meet new cultures and ways of living. I think I am sociable and open-minded. I like photography, music, books, movies, eating (now we are trying a plant based diet, and it feels so good!)

I am currently setting up my own business, a cosmetic brand based in Mediterranean, and I am so excited!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

I am quite flexible about music. Every kind has something special so I think it depends on my mood I would listen to so different music. From 60s to indie music, some of my favourite bands are The Doors, The Velvet Underground, Joy Division, Bowie, The Stone Roses, Tame Impala, Alt-J, Beirut, Devendra Banhart, Arcade Fire, Kasabian...

I have been updating this Playlist since I began to listen to proper music, if you want to know something more about me you should discover this:

Movies: Another big world. I am a big fan of Wes Anderson (Moonrise Kingdom, The Royal Tenenbaums, Life aquatic... they are a masterpiece). Sometimes I like to challenge myself and get into the strange world of David Lynch (Blue velvet, Mulholland Drive). One of my last recommendation could be The lobster by Yorgos Lanthimos.

Books: La délicatesse (David Foenkinos), 1984 (George Orwell), Un mundo feliz (Huxley), Sin noticias de Gurb (Eduardo Mendoza), La Vérité sur l’affaire Harry Quebert (Joel Dicker)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am currently seting up my own business in natural cosmetics from mediterranean. I am traveling to find out some inspiration in new trends and suitable ingredients. After my stay away in Scotland I discovered my passion for botanics and everything related to natural remedies, including my plant-based diet.

I can teach you typical things of Spanish culture as dancing (sevillanas), cooking, places to visit, cool expressions and tips.
