I’m Mark — a designer who loves exploring how beauty and intelligence take shape in the world, whether through architecture, movement, or conversation. I practice yoga and calisthenics, and I’m fascinated by how the body expresses thought and feeling. My interests move easily between spirituality, philosophy, and science — I enjoy seeing how they all connect beneath the surface.

With my guests I enjoy simple things: cooking together, wandering through a neighborhood, or sharing stories from their paths. I know you're interested in visiting the tourist spots of Madrid, but I've seen them plenty of times so I'll let you go on your own. I get along well with people of all ages and all walks of life. I particularly appreciate authenticity, uniqueness, strong opinions when well-reasoned, open mindedness, walking the walk rather than talking the talk.

Monday to Friday I'm usually working all day and after that I go to yoga/gym/dancing lessons. If you do any of these, I'd be thrilled to practice with you. Weekends we can do something together if you feel inclined.

**I prefer short notice hosting requests** 1-5 days ahead of your stay gives you better chances. I don't plan much ahead and I don't know if I will want to be somewhere three weeks away from now.

For my own comfort and yours, I only host one person at a time, no exceptions.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Because I enjoy meeting and hosting people. But I'm also hands-off with my guests. I treat my guests as I would like to be treated myself (I give room for independence and freedom—not obligation—to join any activity).
