About Me

I'm working in Madrid for 7 years now. I'm a web manager for a petroleum company at a posh skyscraper at the financial town, but wear Vans and live in a cozy appartment at historic center of Madrid. Music is my life. I listen to my iPod 8 hours a day, and go to like a hundred concerts/festivals a year! I'm very easygoing, talkative and always down for a good laugh. I love a beer with friends but also enjoy being alone. I don't know, you better ask!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and to meet new people. I'd love both to host foreign people and show them the city, and to meet new people who can show me things from the places I visit.

Interests

I definitely love music. I play guitar and piano, I love to go to concerts, festivals, open airs... I am a writer at an independent music magazine. I'm pretty into volunteerism, I volunteer on the weekend as an instructor for autistic kids, and volunteer abroad in the summers! I also love cinema, reading, hang out with friends and have a (couple of) beer. I love football (soccer), basketball, swimming and most of the sports. I love to travel, hiking in the nature, ...

Music, Movies, and Books

All sub genres of Indie, Electronic and Rock mostly. Also Metal, Rap, Folk, Jazz, R&B, bossa nova, ...

Pitchfork.com tends to be my music guide.

I love to read, some of my favourites: Herman Hesse, Nabokov, Nietzsche, Mark Twain, Dostoyevsky, Kafka, Freud, and Philosophy in general ...

Also love deeply cinema: Scorsese, David Fincher and Francis Ford Coppola (sucker for the Godfather) are my favourite directors. I tend to like any movie from the Oscars or so...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've backpacked the USA alone.
