Hi there! I am Juanfri, a 23-year-old Spanish man. I have studied a Biochemistry Degree and also a Master's degree in Biomedical Research. I'm starting mi PhD in Molecular Biology since April 2017. As you can imagine, I love science! Since I was a child, I've been a very curious person, so a job that consists of discovering unknown things until that moment is perfect for me! That's why I am a researcher.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I consider myself as a really outgoing person. I love meet very different people and learn from them about different cultures and interests (that's why I love traveling!) I like hanging out a lot but above all I like hiking and nature. I think I have a lot of adaptability and I can have fun doing anything!

Музыка, кино и книги

I don't know how to start! haha. I love classic rock and country-folk music (Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Pink Floyd, The Doors, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan,...), contemporary indie pop and rock bands (Artic Monkeys, Belle and Sebastian, The Strokes, The Smiths, Radiohead,...), singer-songwriter music (Damien Rice, Glen Hansard, Joaquín Sabina, Kevin Johansen, Silvio Rodríguez, el Kanka, Luis Pastor,...), spanish rock and rap bands (Extremoduro, Marea, Fito, Kase.O, Los chikos del Maiz, La Raíz,...)

Movies: any of Wes Anderson, Christopher Nolan, David Lynch, David Fincher, Kubrick, Buñuel, Charlie Kauffman, Spike Jonze, Coen brothers, Tarantino, Richard Linklater.. I love mental paranoia movies and psychological thrillers, but also science fiction and black comedy movies. Some examples: The tenebaums, Interestellar, Inception, Mulholland Drive, Lost highway, Seven, Fight Club, 2001: a Space Odissey, The Shinning, The Exterminating Angel, Adaptation, Synecdoche: New York, Her, Miller's Crossing, Barton Fink, Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Before Sunrise, Sunset and Midnight, Boyhood, Waking Life,...

Books: international poetry (Walt Whitman, Bukowski, Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Benedetti, Pessoa, Juan Ramón Jiménez, Lorca, Miguel Hernández), I also love south american authors (Cortázar, Benedetti, Galeano, Juan Rulfo), Classical authors (Goethe, Kafka), comtemporary authors (Kundera, Murakami, Virginia Woolf), dystopic novels (1984, Farenheit 451, Brave New World,...)... Now I am particularly obsessed with Kundera and Pessoa, they are my favorite authors at the moment.

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Before starting my thesis grant, I am spending 5 weeks in Budapest as a volunteer in Suite Hostel Budapest. I wanted to live this nice experience in order to meet new people every day and have feelings that I had never had before. Taking advantage of what I am here, I'd like to spend some weekends in relatively close cities. Firstly I am interested in Krakow, and for another weekend I do not rule out traveling to Prague, Bratislava or Vienna.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

In general, I'd like to know how is the daily life of the places I am going to visit, as well as to know beautiful natural or city places that do not appear in the tourist guides.

In return, I can offer stories about Spain (daily live there, politics, costumes,...) and about other trips I've done across Europe. I can also teach to cook typical Spanish dishes! Furthermore I can talk about scientific curiosities and clarify doubts about how the science of life works.

Currently, I'm writing down my feelings in order to carry out an introspection of my thought process. Having said that, I'm very interested in gaining insight into the estructure and essence of matter, the mind's power, differents aspects of philosophy and the edifice of materialistic rationality, as well as lucid dreams.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

In addition to cooking, I think I am a good company for every plan the host'd like to do! I am also a respectful person and I have no problem following the rules of the house where I stay. By the way, I love pets!
