About Me

In the next sections you can read "grosso modo" about me, so here I would say only that I'm very easy going, despite of I'm a bit shy at the beginning, usually described by friends, colleages and strangers as a chilled person in the good sense of the expression as I don't use to get stressed by anything, take the life as it comes and think in the bright side of the things trying to spread positivity and peace around me, but I cannot guarantee to achieve it 100% of the times despite of I'm very tenacious trying it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I promised myself to travel more and find myself out of my comfort zone, that was my 2016 New Years Resolution, and looking through the internet I discovered what is couchsurfing and I was amazed. I want to travel more not to have pictures of places in paper or screen, I want those images in my mind, in my pupils, learn and increase my knowledge as well of my experinces, and staying in the couch of diferent people with diferent cultures, ideas, lifestyles whose places are in different ciries and countries only can be positive for the mind and the soul even if my neck hurts after a bad couch.

Interests

I'm into sports, in my days off I like to go swimming early in the morning, and I love cycling (road and mountainbike) and running.
As I explain in the next part of my profile, I like music, movies and read.
I would love to travel more, have new experiences, meet new people, cultures, lifestyles, visit new places, and my only New Year resolution has been that one, the key of that, travel more and learn from everywhere and everyone I meet.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love almost all kind of music, I'm a bit eclectic and I like to alternate depending of my mood probably, but wouldn't have sense to write a list without end here. Just to let you know that I'm always interested on discover new music, musicians and bands.

As well with the music I love too to watch movies and series, but the list of favourites is more bearable but still too large, so I will give you some examples. I'm fan of Star Wars, I like Fight Club, Inception, The Great Scape, Gene Kelly musical movies, movies about the war, music, sci-fi, history... I cried with Warrior.

My favourite book is The Great Gatsby, I read it first time when I was 14 and since then is kind of a little but healthy obsession as well of the Magritte paint "The son of Man". Some of my favourite writers are Haruki Murakami, Michel Houellebecq, Charles Bukowski, H.P. Lovecraft... but I like to read, so I'm very variable on it. Also I like superheroes comics.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I could say that I saved a life, actually a few, but was on my duty, so I think that anyone in my position would have do the same. Anyway I feel it like something important for my soul. Maybe the amazing this is about to come.

Teach, Learn, Share

I truly believe that no one is master or pupil, because in everyone are part of both, so I can't say "I can teach you this" but I can help you to learn about my knowledge and I would be glad to learn from yours. Anyway I would very pleased to help you with Spanish if you are interested.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If I'm able to host you, I will share a comfortable place to sleepover and if my work allows me to do it, show or explain you what I know of the city, give you indication and advises, share a proper dinner and good company.
