About Me

Last year student in Food science and technology bachelor in Valencia. Learning chinese at the moment.And traveling to China next summer! :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people, new cultures and learn new languages when travelling!

Interests

Travelling, above all things! And food, learning about foods from all over the world. But also hiking, specially in the mountains, and enjoying a good beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most kinds of musics, it depends on the time and mood, ranging from ska music to classical music, passing through country. Mark Knopfler I would say is my favourite one.

Favourite movie... "Diarios de motocicleta", Motorcicle diaries. It tells the story of a young Che Guevara and his trip throughout south america. Very inspiring!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacking in Malaysia and Singapore two years ago. And in Cambodia/Thailand last summer.

But more specific... Visiting Angkor Wat temples and swimming with fluorescent plancton at Koh Rong island! Snorkeling in Tioman Island, walking at night at Singapore or diving at the Great Barrier Reef were top experiences also!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some basic Spanish, or you can practice with me if you're learning the language, as well as English! (And also Catalan, this one and Spanish are my native languages). And I can also show you some Spanish dishes!

I would love to learn about the people and the culture of the countries where I travel. And of course, since I'm learning mandarin Chinese, I would be glad to practice it :)

Share... What's better than sharing a meal or a drink? ;)
