About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn things I didn´t have time for in the past

ABOUT ME

All about me? Better say a bit about me...I love art, travelling as you can imagine..love wild nature (brings me peace) Love my family (we are pretty close!)and friends from home town. I like new people (favourite way to learn). Mostly I like new experiences!! Love to share lunch (love seafood), good conversation, drink (love wine and rhm!!), until dinner time!!

PHILOSOPHY

I live mostly by instinct and impulses...sometimes is good sometimes not that good, but in fact that is the way it is for me at least for the moment..can´t help it!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just started so I haven´t done much for the moment...I hope I´ll have the opportunity to do so in the future!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had in Madrid people at home I did not know (friends of friends) but it was not with couch surfing..I guess the experience is similar...love to have "fresh air" at home...

Interests

I´m interested in art in almost every expression..I did some theatre for about three years. I still do once in a while some painting (Achrylic, oil..)but mainly I go to exhibitions lot more (last one: Barcelo´s). I tried to sing but not very good at...Like architecture, cinema...Skiing and diving are two of my favourite sports.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I might be able to share some easy spanish cooking, and language if needed...and maybe the use of colour in oil painting.

I would love to learn how to play any small instrument for my trip y cualquier malabar especialmente las mazas (don´t Know how to say in english, sorry...)
