Hey there! I'm Alejandro, currently based in Montreal, Canada. I'm a curious soul who loves meeting new people, sharing stories, and discovering the hidden gems of every city I visit. Whether it's a cozy café, a local hike, or a spontaneous jam session, I'm always up for something new.

I’m easygoing, respectful, and genuinely enjoy connecting with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined CS this year, I believe is more than just a free place to stay, it’s about connection, kindness, and shared experiences. I’m here to meet open-minded people, learn from others, and hopefully leave a few smiles behind.

Interests

I’m a curious person with a backpack full of dreams and a heart set on adventure. I collect stories, not souvenirs—and I believe the best ones come from unexpected conversations with strangers who become friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

🎶 Music is my fuel—whether I’m chilling, working, or training. I’m into:
- Pearl Jam – raw, emotional, timeless
- Moby – for those ambient, soul-searching moments
- Radio Kaos – love the storytelling and sonic layers
- House & Progressive – especially when the beat builds and takes you somewhere unexpected
I’m always down to swap playlists or discover local underground scenes when I travel.

📚 I'm drawn to books that explore mysteries, history, and human nature. Favorites include:
- La Dama Azul and other works by Javier Sierra; love the blend of historical intrigue and the supernatural.
- Yo, Julia by Santiago Posteguillo; powerful storytelling rooted in Roman history
- Anything that mixes suspense, philosophy, or ancient civilizations.

I enjoy conversations that start with “Have you read…” and end with hours of deep discussion.

🎬 I’m a huge fan of bold directors who push boundaries and tell unforgettable stories.

¤ Quentin Tarantino, for the dialogue, the grit, the style.
◇George Lucas, because Star Wars is more than a saga, it’s a universe.
☆Alejandro González Iñárritu, for the emotional depth and visual poetry (The Revenant, Amores Perros)

I love films or documentaries that challenge you, surprise you, or just make you feel something real.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve stood where gladiators once fought in the Roman Colosseum and climbed the steps of the Chichen Itza pyramid, tracing the echoes of two great civilizations across continents.
