Juanito Alimaña is a 26-years-old guy who loves to laugh, to meet and share with people, to discover places, cities and countries.

Linguistics student, and copy editor in mass media, Juanito is an art & tennis (sport) lover. Reading literature is a duty for him, and cooking a passionate hobbie -in all the places/cities/countries where I've been, I've learned to cook tipical or famous recipes-.

I enjoy party & cocktail casual times, and workout and fitness habits.

Trying to be happy, every day.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Well, you know, a young guy, traveling on his own around the world, meeting people from another world places and cities, enjoying cultural and social and gastronomic mixes... ¿staying in a hotel room? ¡Nope! I can´t imagine the picture.

I think and believe that traveling is an opportunity to learn... to be, for example, less shy, or to see and learn to respect another ways of life and living, or to understand another people, or to meet others. And that's why I'm here, in CS. Because maybe a way to learn "better" about places I'm visiting and people I'm meeting is in their homes.

Offcourse, the trip economy is involved too, but that's not the main reason.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

From Tchaikovsky to Rachmaninoff, through Bach. Something about Charles, Sinatra, Fitzgerald, Armstrong, Coltrane... I like the enigmatic Dani Klein, the romantic Adriana Varela, the tango master Goyeneche, the lovely italian Bocelli... I like to relax or dance alone with Coldplay, Years and Years, Foster The People, King Of Convenience, Janelle Monae, Stromae... I prefer to move on with Calvin Harris, Giorgio Moroder, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Bob Sinclair... I love to read with Indian and Arabic ritms... I´m just a music mix lover.

The King Lion: a way to do not forget to be a child. Harry Potter, my dream protagonic. Beetlejuice, my surreal life. The Hunt; Eat, Pray, Love; The Perks of Being a Wallflower, well done drama. Whiplash, ´cause the dedication is the only way and the exageration, the terrible mistake of a professor. The Grand Budapest Hotel, the classy film. Amelie, the French dream.

And about books, an infinite list. Just one thing to say: I love the (novel) literature with Istambul scenarios.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I think I've been a good Spanish teacher. And in all my trips I want to learn about humility, understanding and sincere smiles.
