About Me

I am a teacher of professional training at computer science, I love trekking and mountaineering, travelling, especially to natural landscapes, meetting local people, ...
I was a scout leader, organized scout camps, and other activities in my scout group from my village in Northern Spain.
I also spent a year as Erasmus student in Belfast, great experience! after that I worked for some months at University as a guide for students of Spanish... so that after those experiences I guess I started loving meeting new people, and hearing from other cultures, backgrounds, etc.
I'm vegetarian, but, of course, you can eat/cook everything you want at home, I'm surrounded by meat eaters all day so no worries :)
Regarding my character, I'd say I'm a good guy, but you'd better read references ^^

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sharing is caring ;) improve English, meeting people from diverse backgrounds and locals on my trips, findind out interesting places off the beaten path, ...

I am the best fan of my region (Cantabria, in Spain) and therefore a very enthusiastic guide :) I recently moved few months ago to Cambridge, MA so I'm not so good as a guide in Boston, for now hehe.
