About Me

Hello!! I am a student from Barcelona doing my master's thesis at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. So, I am now living in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
I love travelling and meeting new people from around all over. For me, the best way to grow in this planet is listening how other people understand the life and sharing your point of view. Above all, if they are from other cultures. My current mission is to learn as much as I can from other people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing because this community offers the way of travel that I like. For me, travelling means discovering and understanding how the local people live and think. Therefore, if you are inside a community, you will feel like one more and you will discover authentic places rather than touristic ones. Moreover, I really enjoy sharing experiences and cultures, since it makes me grow a lot!

Interests

My passion is practicing all kind of sports. I have done dancing, gymnastics, athletics. Also, I have skied during winters since I was a child. Currently, I am focusing in vinyasa yoga, acroyoga and climbing. So, I love meeting new people in jams and practicing acroyoga/yoga with them.
Also, I love trying new food from all over the world.
Of course, I have more passions but it is impossible to describe all of them here. Therefore, you will have to meet me to discover the other ones.

Music, Movies, and Books

It is impossible to select only one kind of music since I’m into different kinds of music (classic music, reagge, rumba, jazz ...). I have played the flute for many years and the drums for some years. Due to this, I really enjoy going out to places with live music.

I am not going very often to the cinema, but I am a series freak. I spend too much time seeing them!!

Regarding books, my favorite ones are black novels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The best periods of my life have been abroad. I lived six months in Warsaw (Poland) and I'm currently living in USA.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a very open-minded and tolerant person. Therefore, I will try to teach all I know, learn as much as I can from other people and share all my knowledge and experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Besides lots of laughs, experiences and stories, I can cook typical dishes from Spain and some from Poland. I love sharing time with people from different backgrounds in order to learn and understand more this crazy world.
