I'm a solo traveller loving to discover the world. I have discovered a 1% of the world and I'm willing to discover at least a 2% of it. My next challenge is to make 600km on a cycling tour!

It's complicated to sum myself up but I'm gonna try:
I'm a friendly person, self-conscious, responsible, hardworking, empathetic, good listener, good friend. I'm shy (trying to improve on that) but if we get along things will go easy.
Respect and empathy is the key!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What has brought me here is my love about different cultures and languages. I think there isn't a better way to know them than through the people. This is why I'm here.

I'm currently interested about meeting locals from Portugal, a country I'd like to know more about. My plan is to visit Lisbon, then Nazaré and finally make the way back to Valencia (my city) stopping in Madrid for a couple of days.

If you are so nice to host me and the experience goes well, be sure I will host you with the best care and attention if you come to Valencia.

Interests

I've always been a creative person, mostly passionate about drawing and writing stories. Since the past two years I've been more focused on learning about historical fashion though. Nowadays I've applied this to my daily wardrobe, dressing like in the 30's decade to 1950's. I also like to make some shot sessions and edit the pictures artistically just for fun. If you'd like to see some samples you can check my IG: @olden.days_golden.days

I also love to be on the nature, so I often take my bike from my apartment to arrive to the forest or the countryside that are my best refuge.
I've been on Saint-Jacques way 4 times, the last one was from Porto to Santiago. I'm looking forward to repeat it.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm not a big reader but quite a cinephile. If I started to mention all my favourite movies I could probably write several pages. If you would like to have an idea about a few movies I like though you can check my abandoned Instagram account from the 15 year old me @peliculasquemegustan I liked to make reviews back then.

Music- a wide unrelated range:
Janis Joplin, Cesaria Evora, Manu Chao, Paco Ibáñez, Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Leonard Cohen, Wim Mertens, Vivaldi, Pavarotti, Amy Winehouse, Rosalía, Asaf Avidan

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not sure of which anecdote to choose so I'll write both

1.I met my "couchsurfing" mate through a language exchange app. We have travelled 4 times to each other's country to show the other around, sharing the flat, having lunch with our family and making trips together to the surroundings.

2. Few months ago I took a selfie and a ghost appeared behind me.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a spanish teacher I'd be more than happy to help you improve this language, and also french if you are interested.

I can also share with you my cooking skills (I know how to do plenty of meals!)

We can share our artistic interests and learn from each other, whether it is painting, writing, taking photos or philosophize.

Finally, I'm specting to learn a little Portuguese, I'd be grateful if you could help me.
