Spaniard back in Madrid after 6 years living in Amsterdam / thirty something (to avoid updating my profile once per year ;) ) / in love with people, to discover new (for me) cultures, music and dancing / geek / photography / scuba diving / to talk and to listen / hiking / walking around the cities...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel (and I do it quite a lot both for pleasure and work) but not just to meet new places but for the pleasure of meeting beautiful people all over the globe. I have heard about couchsurfing for years now but it's now when my girlfriend has "pushed me" (gently!) to create a profile so... here I am!

I think that being in a new place is exciting but being in a new place with someone local that is willing to exchange couch, time and experiences with a total extranger willing to do the same is invaluable (and it also reminds us how important is to "connect" with people in this fast paced society!)

This said... I am really looking forward to share stories with you!

Interests

I love to travel (surprise uh ;) ), photography, scuba diving, hiking... but also going to the movies or for a nice dinner with friends, to enjoy a glass of wine... or to dance! (I dance/teach kizomba and bachata)

Apart from this I am really into people: it's amazing how different and similar we all are: the most I travel the most I realize about this.

Music, Movies, and Books

some movies (in random order):
Donnie Darko, Dead poets society, Blade runner, Pi (not life of pi!), Gattaca, Good morning Vietnam, Any given sunday, The fisher king, 12 angry men, The dark knight, Inception, Fight Club, City of God, Requiem for a dream, Amelie...

some books (in random order):

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have travelled quite a lot so I apart from the countries where I was born or lived I can share some nice stories about any of those places. I also love photography so more likely we can have some nice memories and a couple of nice portraits too!

And in case that doesn't catch you yet... I can also cook and I love to talk and to listen... so I am sure it won't be boring for any of us!
