Overview
About Me
Hi there! I’m back to CS after some years out of it, and now i have somewhere to host! This community helped me out when I needed it as a broke college student, so I’m glad to give back as a broke young professional with a tiny apartment (and maybe get back to CS abroad again?).
I LOVE travelling. I graduated with a double major in biplogy and history from nomad Minerva uni in 2020 and have been on a pretty wild ride since then. I ended up as a software dev based in Madrid with my partner Yassine, but I still love to travel and meet people!
I’ll leave the remains of the bio I wrote at 18 cause I think it’s kind of funny, but not all of it is true anymore!
See you around :)

My big passions are travel and books, but I can talk about absolutely any topic.
My love for travel has always been there, but lately, the travel bug just won't stop bugging, leading me to live the cheap life in my nomad university while I move around even more (+ wait, nomad university? - yup, just ask!).
I also enjoy photography (I recently lost my camera, and now I feel terribly lost) and seeing others' art while fantasizing about a world in which I could do that.
If we meet, expect a million questions about your experiences since I love listening and learning from others, although when it comes to adventuring, I can sometimes be too curious for my own good (don't ask, or do, it's up to you).
In my free time, expect to find me snowboarding down a hill while reading a fantasy book with one hand and playing really bad harmonica with the other. I'll then fall into an ocean to scuba dive and ride my dirtbike into the sunrise.
Don't miss the chance to hear my terrible pronunciation while introducing myself in a language I've already been taught, or even better, listen to me fail at a new one for the first time!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I heard from Couchsurfing through a friend, and fell in love with the idea! I have stayed at locals' houses around the world before, but always through acquaintances, and I had the most valuable experiences. I just couldn't miss the chance to get to share cultures with people from all around the world!
EDIT: after having used CS both to stay with hosts and to meet other travellers, I am so happy to have joined. I feel very comfortable and I look forward to using it no matter where I am at.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Moved to a different continent for a year when 16 :) (#exchangestudent)
Slept on the floor in the Sahara even after having found a deadly scorpion running around earlier
Went to Egypt at 11 and asked too many questions, the guide like me so much he "adopted" me for the whole trip and made me presents
Scuba diving in Perhentian Islands, Malaysia
Move to a different country every 4 months (done it for 3 years, at least another one to go!)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you languages!
I can share FOOD! SPANISH FOOD! Believe me it's worth it.
I can share equally funny and embarrassing stories that happened to me while abroad.
