About Me

I am a very sociable person who enjoys the most having a beer with some friends on a terrace when sun is still warming and good conversation flows. I love discovering new places accompanied by locals or just taking walks by myself. Knowing new people’s everyday life and being somehow part of it it’s one of the things I really appreciate about travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To start living the life I dream of (too ambitious??)

Interests

Reading, watching films, old black and white movies, philosophy, cooking, writing, walking, mountain walking, music, dancing, chess… well, you get it, almost everything!

  • poetry
  • concerts
  • dancing
  • cooking
  • wine
  • beer
  • walking
  • movies
  • reading
  • traveling
  • music

Music, Movies, and Books

Spanish and Catalan singers like Sabina, Serrat, Silvio, Extremoduro, Estopa… and the classic ones Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Neil Young, The Beatles… Des chanteurs français comme Brassens, Jean Ferrat, Brel, Aznavour (yes, I'm a little bit old fashioned)
I love cinema, all you can see in small charming movie theatres. I try to make the most of cinema experiences, which means going back home with something new and brilliant in your pocket (like a precious metal that you would keep in your room for years).
I love reading, even If I don’t read as much as I wanted. Prose, poetry, essays, short stories. I don’t have a favourite writer. There are a lot of fields that capture my interest.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As at this moment I’m preparing a trip (the first one I will do by myself), I would say: what a amazing thing I am doing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always ready to learn and I love sharing experiences, like having a glass of wine in a beautiful bistro or spending time in nature.
Now I’m learning to walk a slackline! (Google it up if you don’t know what is it)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, discovering Barcelona (spots that you won’t find in the guidebooks), a good sense of humor, I can teach you Spanish and Catalan and I can take you to some bars where you will enjoy poetry readings, concerts, jam sessions and some other amazing stuff!
