Hi, I'm Manuel, but you can call me Manu. I was born in Ecuador, raised by my granparents to later on move with my parents to Pamplona, Spain (You may know it for "San Fermines"), where I've been living for 18 years. Latinoamerica has a great place in my heart, but I'm also appreciative to Spain for welcoming me all this time.
It's a great duality of cultures that has driven me to find new places and ways of seeing the world. Just imagine: "Empanadas" for breakfast, a "ceviche" for lunch... them some "bocadillo de txistorra" and "tortilla de patata" for dinner. Amazing!

Right now I've just finished my collage years and... you know, life changes a little bit, different people, different objectives, different conversations, but it's cool, I always like to hear new stories. That's why I'm here. Finding new places and faces, and writting my little own adventure story...

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

This summer I did "El camino de Santiago" (Saint James Way), I met so many amazing people I can't even tell. I learned so much about every culture, about their way of seeing the world, and found out kindness of people in the most pure way I've ever seen. It help me discover an adventurous soul inside me that was willing to travel and learn about life and art in all of its forms.
