I`m Alex. I`m from the Canary Islands. My real passion is cinema. I`m changing lots of things in my life right now. I`ve been travelling and moving a lot around Europe in the last few years but now I`m more stable. I`m willing to learn new things and meet new interesting people. I love kids, I watch as many films as I can, some Netflix too, and try to dedicate at least some time each day to write my ideas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If you are interested in questioning existence every now and then, analyze human behaviour, willing to create a connection with others; if you are open to new ways of understanding life, if you don`t wana stay in the surface of things; if you want to share your beliefs with respect, talk about love, death, poetry, feminism or just let the conversation flow through random issues, I`m your ideal guest.

Interests

Travelling, being an adventurer; not a turist. Getting to know the people and the customs of the place.
Cinema, all kind of cinema. I'm a movie freak. I also like to shoot everytime I have an opportunity.
Music makes me reborn when I feel depressed and drained of energy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trying to focus on the future.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Spanish or talk to you about Spanish Culture. We can talk in English too, no problem. We can talk about movies and music. If we have some connection I prefer to talk real shit instead of small talk, but I can adapt to the person. Your call.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sense of humour, banter, analytical thinking, philosophy, silliness, a bottle of wine, a good conversation, the title of that movie or the name of that actor you can`t remember, a crazy dance, and the most important of all, positivity, respect and a good laugh.
