About Me

I'm studying aeronautical engineering at the moment. One of my passions is music, I've been playing the clarinet since I was 6. Furthermore, I started playing the guitar and the piano by myself when I was 12.

Another thing that I love are sports. I play football with my friends in an amateur league. And on week-ends I try to find the time to go to the mountain. I generally love all sports that you can practise in the mountains, although the ones that I like the most are Skying and Hiking.

I've been volunteering for 5 years in a summercamp with kids beetween 6 up to 17.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling, this is something I have inheritated from my parents.
We are always searching for ocasions to leave the country and visit new places.
The other day we booked two flights with my girlfriend to Oakland, it was such a very good offer that we couldn't resist. We are travelling on a budget, so it would be fantastic if we could meet local people so they can recommend us the best way to move around. Our intention is to stay in San Francisco for a couple of days, three at most, and then start a route to visit the sorroundings (natural parks and nearest cities)

Right now I live with my parents and it is not possible for me to host couchsurfers. As soon as I can get my own place I will be happy to host you!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kind of music, but if i had to choose I would stay with the classics (AC/DC, Rollings, Bruce, Aerosmith,...). However, my favourite music groups from all times are Queen, Muse and Manel (a local group).
Loving the new Ed Sheeran's album!

I used to read a lot when I was younger, Lotr, Harry Potter...
I haven't started any book this year, but the last year I read 1984 (George Orwell), A Short History of Nearly Everything (Bil Bryson), and Fahrenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury)... a bit more complex ones.
