Hi there! I'm Albert, a sailor by profession, navigating the seas and exploring the world one port at a time. My job has taken me to many fascinating places, and I love sharing stories from my adventures on the high seas.

When I'm not aboard a ship, I enjoy immersing myself in local cultures, tasting new cuisines, and meeting interesting people from all walks of life. I believe that travel is not just about seeing new places, but about making connections and understanding different perspectives.

I'm easygoing, open-minded, and always up for a good conversation over a cup of coffee or a meal. Whether you have a cozy couch or just some travel tips to share, I'd love to connect and exchange experiences. Looking forward to meeting fellow travelers and making new friends along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a sailor navigating the vast oceans, I've come to realize that true exploration isn't just about the places we visit, but the people we meet along the way. Couchsurfing offers a unique opportunity to dive into the heart of local cultures, exchange stories, and create connections that transcend borders.

I'm here to share my maritime adventures, learn from the experiences of others, and embrace the spontaneity that comes with every new encounter. Whether it's over a shared meal, a game of chess, or a jam session with fellow music enthusiasts, I'm excited to make meaningful memories and friendships. Let's explore the world together, one couch at a time!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One amazing thing I've done was visiting a remote village in China as a tourist. It was a fascinating experience because, due to the scarcity of tourists in that area, I ended up feeling like a celebrity! Everywhere I went, locals were incredibly curious and excited to see me. They would take pictures, record videos, and even ask to take selfies with me. It was a surreal experience, being the center of attention in such a unique and beautiful place. This unexpected popularity made my visit even more memorable and gave me a deeper appreciation for the local culture and hospitality.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: I can share my knowledge about life at sea and sailing, including interesting maritime stories and navigation tips. Additionally, I can teach you some basics of music creation, as it's one of my passions.

Learn: I'm currently learning Spanish and would love to practice with anyone fluent or at a more advanced level. I'm also eager to learn more about different cultures, cuisines, and local traditions from around the world.

Share: I enjoy playing chess and would be happy to share a game with anyone interested. I can also share my travel experiences and tips, especially those related to off-the-beaten-path destinations.
