About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Catch 'em all

ABOUT ME

I am currently studying my last year of an engineering degree in Aarhus (Denmark) as an exchange student. I am actually from Seville (Spain).
I don't know what I will do with my life the next year. I am thinking about staying here in Denmark or trying to ask for a grant in order to go to Japan (one of my dreams). Almost the only thing that I can assure you is that I won't come back to my country, where I couldn't see a future for me.
That's why I am recovering my couchsurfing account. To have the chance to meet people and places, and be able to choose the next step in my life :D

PHILOSOPHY

We are around 7.000.000.000 people in the world.
How many people does feel alone? None should be the answer but it isn't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I heard about couchsurfing the last year. I was living and working in London during the summer and one of my flatmates brougth two friends from her country (Argentina). They were three girls in a single bedroom so I told one of them to sleep on my sofa. She did and told me about couchsurfing and her experience. I started to read about it and I made a couchsurfing account as well but it wasn't very sucessful because I just stayed three weeks more in London so I hadn't the chance to bring someone there.
But now I will be in Aarhus a whole year so this is your occasion ;)

Interests

I could say travelling, but the main thing that I like to do is surviving. I like the idea that couchsurfing bring me in this way.
I like everything and nothing at the same time.
I can do any sport and I have already done a huge amount of them. Nowadays, I am playing climbing and snowboarding among others.
I like read, but I am not a hungry reader. My favourite book is "Animal farm" by G. Orwell (I guess he is my favourite writer). I've read this book in spanish and I got the original version of it and I am currently reading and also translating every single word.
I enjoy watching movies and series. I specially enjoy bad movies. This kind of movies that you would never see again. One of the last one that I saw was "Gumo". And one that I really enjoyed was "Black Sheep".
I am starting to learn danish at the school, because it is free for foreigners and I am thinking about learning how to play the piano by my own (because there is a public piano at the library. Quite weird).
To sum up, there is nothing that I am not intetested in. I am a really inquisitive person.

Music, Movies, and Books

- Movies:
Identity, Buried, Lord of the rings, Star Wars, Watchmen, Toy Story, Life is beautiful (as some random movies)
My childhood is Toy Story and Jumanji (I bloody love this film )
- Music:
I am not a music expert, as I said I like everything and nothing at the same time. But now I am use to hear Dubstep and Electronic music. I was at a classic music band in my town for 4 years, so I like classic music as well. For instance, Ludovico Einaudi.
- Books
I like books about dystopia . "Brave new world" by Huxley and "1984" by G.Orwell for example.

Teach, Learn, Share

My teaching skills are natural. If you want to practice some spanish I am your best chance :D
