CURRENT MISSION Finding a passion that I can turn into a profession. ABOUT ME From Barcelona, but likely to travel. Easy-going, open-minded and sociable, and enjoy the occasional (or constant) sarcasm. I love cycling, discovering (decent) places for food and drinks, contemporary culture, live music, and any plan that involves any of the previous.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Because couchsurfing represents everything that's amazing about this world: discovering new things, generosity, spontaneity, travel...
Music, Movies, and Books
Books: A lot of Terenci Moix, but especially 'Garras de astracán'. Also 'Los hijos de León Armendiaguirre', by Pablo González Cuesta, and basically all of Gabriel García Márquez. Movies: Dancer in the dark, Delicatessen, Amélie, Kill Bill vol.1, Life is beautiful, Life of Brian, A night at the opera, The skin I live in... Music: Anything, from the classics and the classical to the 'I can't believe she'd listen to this' kind of crap.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Swam next to sea turtles in Hawaii, which was a breathtaking experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
I love gender issues and sexuality. Not in a creepy, weird way, but its entire spectrum, which I find unbelievably interesting. And I won't be pretentious and think that I could teach you anything new in the topic but hey, maybe we could still have an interesting chat about it?
My Interests
Cycling and obsessing about bikes, second hand clothing (among other items), eating out and (decent) drinking, coffee and cafés, psychology, photography, graphic design and drawing, music and dancing (go for it, even if you suck at it!), languages, living abroad, learning. Also, to practise humour -in general- and sarcasm -in particular- whenever possible.
