Overview
About Me
I'm a 24 year old aspiring filmmaker from Barcelona. As a recent graduate, I work within and without the film industry. In the meantime, my passion is to travel abroad.
In the past, I've been described as calm, friendly, witty and a day-dreamer... To which I would add open-minded and, above all, respectful to others. Of course, as a human being I have my flaws, but nothing serious you should worry about.
Despite being lively, I tend prefer quite environtments. If that's your case, I think we can get on well, even better as host-guest and viceversa. Sometimes it just feels overwhelming with all the noise, tweets, beeps and bits arround us. But then just before I give in I remember how lucky to have been born nearby the Digital Era.
That's why where are here, right?
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To explore the world in a different, more authentic way. Trying to understand what does that "authentic" means, trying to understand, in general.
As I accumulate experiences, I hope I can fill this section with more concrete, thoughtful lines!

Music, Movies, and Books
Not really keen on putting "favourite lists" on the internet, but some clues...
A Movie: 2001, a Space Odyssey (yep, really classical in here) and also "Film Odyssey" by Marc Cousins.
A novel: The Marriage Plot by Jeffrey Eugenides.
An album: Scott 4, by Scott Walker
Musical genre: classical music by Ravel, along with Madchester post-punk and electro, jazz, bebop...
And... lot of poetry. Machado, Lorca, Wallace Stevens, Whitman, Blake
Currently watching True Detective (yes, still), playing The Last of Us (idem), reading Yoga manuals, papers and articles on vision and perception, and relistening to the Spice Girls. And Coltrane.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm more of seeing the "amazing" in the day-to-day living beings, objects and evnts.
Oh, and once I swimmed with to dolphins on a Greek island. Well, not with, but they were relatively close.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Critical yet positive thinking, easy-going attitude, my passion for cinema and arts in general, healthy, sustainable lifestyle, my appetite for knowledge and tasty local food...
In sum, I'm willing to share and learn about personal experiences and tips when travelling abroad.
On the other hand, if time is scarce during your/my stay, I'm independent and I self-sufficient, specially as a guest.
