About Me

Hi there! I am just a regular guy. Kind of geeky, I suppose. I love cinema and language(s) and if you're into politics we'll sure become friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I own my own place I will love to have guests over and meet people from all over the world. Sadly, I currently share an apartment and I have no room to host people. So, by now it's cool just being able to use Couchsurfing just to be the most pleasant guest possible.

Interests

Politics, linguistics, literature, fiction, theater, musical diversity (no radio hits, so to say), psychology. Normal intellectual stuff, let's say, although partying is sometimes very cool as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

Paul Auster, Murakami and Sallinger's catcher in the rye stroke a chord on me. Oh, and Daniel Clowes, of course.

I specially enjoy indie and postrock, but I'm also into other kinds of stuff as well. There goes a reccomendation no one asked for: don't lose the chance to listen to Jordi Savall's music, for instance.

In cinema, 'Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind', you may not need anything else. Well, maybe a little Amélie, but that's too mainstream, ain't it? And Spike Jonze, Trier and Wes Anderson, what the hell.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am actually a language teacher (Catalan and Spanish for foreigners, English, German, Russian), so we could give it a try in the need of it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Pleasant conversations and home-made cooking experiences.
