About Me

Im a very active guy who loves sports and culture. I enjoy reading and going to museums and theatres. I love animals, I have 2 dogs.
I love traveling becouse I like to know a lot of different places know the history and aprecciate its beauty.
Im so easy-going, I like to socialize, meet new people who can help you expand your mind and your views about life, different motivations, ways of thinking, ways of expressing themselves...
I just cant help but sing all the time, the problem is that im not that good of a singer... I'll try to shut it if Im annoying... Just kidding I know how to behave :P
I also like writing down all my thoughts and feelings among some random stories and experiences, it helps me making up my mind and relaxing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Im a very open minden guy. I enjoy being in company of others and above all learning from them, Im always wiling to learn and listen. Couchsurfing is a wonderful oportunity to meet people from the places you travel to, who's gonna explain you the citty better than a local?

Im just starting, im a noobie, haven't surfed yet but im quite excited about it. Right now I cant host due to some complicated situation, we are overbooked hehe. I think this situation will change within the next 2 months though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saved my dog from fallin a downfall when she got cought by a strong stream.

I started climbing a 20mts rock just to try if the starting holds were good (ropeless) realising then I was too high to go down safely, so I had to top the rock, it was my only choice. I started trembling and shaking until I was able to get myself together and make it all the way to the top. I was also alone, so nobody could help me if I fell. Guys, NEVER do this, I could be dead right now.

Teach, Learn, Share

I dont know what are my best skills, I would try to help in everything that I can, helping with spanish maybe. I would try to explain how the spanish society works, all the diferences between the different areas, the issues, what they claim, I dont know, i'd help to a better understanding of spain and spaniards.

Learn, thats what I like to do, I enjoy listening, im very curious, I like to know whats behind, why is the city that way, why are the citiciens that way and even the individuals, why is he/she that way, what are his/her interests and motivations, I like to know all the connections!
