I'm an open-minded easy-going individual. I love my two jobs: research on Astrophysics / Exo-planetary science and teaching Math / Physics to crazy pre-college teenagers. Since I was 18, every penny I manage to save during the year I spend it traveling during holidays: I can't conceive my life without a continuous discovery of new places, people and cultures.

/* to surfers requesting to stay */
To me, couch surfing is an opportunity for a cultural exchange. I offer my home and relinquish part of my privacy with the expectation of sharing some time, conversations, cooking, debates over dinner, learning about your home's history, language... If you send a request, please, make the effort to tell me about you, and make sure that we are on the same page.
Also, I don't live with animals because I don't have the time to properly take care of them, but I love them, so feel free to come with your pet (all species are welcomed).

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
