Hey stranger! :) my name is Desiré. I was born in Madrid, Spain. After traveling around many countries I ended up living in Amsterdam, where I am currently studying biomedical sciences.

I am the kind of person that thinks you should live your own life the way you want to, not the way people tell you to do. Just try to be happy by the things that make you a better human. Take on risks and never leave nothing to be done.

I love travelling around the world and knowing different people and cultures. I learn a lot of every trip I take and it makes me grow personally a bit more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It is a good way of meeting new people and getting more integrated with locals as well as getting to know the culture of the country better.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: directors such as Christopher Nolan, David Fincher or Martin Scorsese made most of my favourite movies.

Music: any type of music, depending on the moment. A nice solo voice with a guitar always sounds great to me.

Books: no preference. Love reading good stories in general.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I like doing adventure sports, so maybe I would consider that skydiving has been one of the most amazing experiences I´ve ever had and which I´m looking forward to repeat.
But also traveling on my own to different countries had made me live incredible moments and do things that I would never have had the courage to do.

Life on its own is quiet amazing, you just need to appreciate it and enjoy as much as you can.
