About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Widening my horizons, intellectually, artistically and socially speaking, and as a human being in general!! I suppose!!

ABOUT ME

Dedicated to social sciences, I love reading, art, music and philosophy. I am a good traveler too, with a vocation for anthropology, I love animals and nature. Thats why my favorite sports are hiking, mountaineering, climbing and diving, which I practice since long ago.
So in my free time I have plenty of things to do, adding some guitar playing, mostly blues, R&B, some jazz fusion and even some hard rock.
I live alone by the time being and thats why I am quite free to receive guests any time!!

PHILOSOPHY

It is very important to me how we, as persons, how we relate with the others and with nature in every days life, little things make the difference.

I try to live not only with my rational mind, but also with my heart, body and soul.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I offer my place for travelers who want to spend some days around Madrid, because I would like to know people from around the world and share experiences with them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had friends from abroad staying at my house many times before, but not trough the CS community.

Interests

Socialize and being open with other people, maybe from different cultures. I can share good knowledge from Spain and other countries, about culture, nature and sports there.
