About Me

I'm from Spain. I've lived in Belgium, Spain and the UK.

I study Philosophy and Politica Science. I love learning about anything new, listening, and debating.

I am very clean, and quiet when I have to, but love to explore and go dancing when I can. I'll go anywhere you like, I'm open for anything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When you don't know a place, you only see a map with names.

When you live there, even for the littlest amount of time, that map is filled with memories, faces, good food, music, and architecture.

What better way to fill the maps in the world than by couchsurfing?

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all kinds of music, I volunteer at a jazz club sometimes.
Some of my favourites are Fleetwood Mac, The Black Keys, Amy Winehouse and all the blues and jazz greats.

I also love art: paintings, photography, cinematography, and literature.

Love to explore all kinds of art, and see how they give meaning to my life as I grow and change. What inspires you?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned to plant in rice fields in India

Got lost in the Sahara desert

Spoke at the United Nations in NYC once

Did live flamenco shows when I was a kid

Teach, Learn, Share

I love being around nature. I've volunteered in environmental projects with NGOs in India and Africa.

I founded a club at my university to get people walking in forests, beaches, any green and beautiful space. Love to see people de-stress, get off their phones, and get walking and talking.

Naturally, I also love to travel. I've travelled mainly the USA and Europe.

I think any corner of the world has something to offer, and life is too short and wonderful not to try and see as many as possible :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I speak English, Spanish, and French; if you want to learn I'd love to help.

Not the best cook, but I can make some nice breakfast dishes, some spanish tapas dishes, and veggie recipes.

I love to walk in nature so I'm a good hiking companion.

Love second-hand stuff, reducing, re-using and recycing. Not an expert but if you're curious I might give you some tips and tricks.

I sing and play the guitar, if you want to listen to/play music and dance!

Countries I’ve Lived In

Belgium, Spain, United Kingdom
