About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Just moved to London. Looking for a job in my field and enjoy with new friends. Meet UK. Ride with my bike through Wales, Highlands and Skie.

ABOUT ME

I love to enjoy little things in life like just being sat down or walking at a foreign city, countryside, mountain, wherever and look to the landscape or sunset there.
When I travel I like the plan of trying to feel as local people, be doing simple things, walk and walk, enjoy special little city places. I don't like the luxury neither consume excesses.
I love to involve myself into a new or different context.
I love sport and phisical activity. Hiking, climbing and mountainbiking are my sport passions. I bring the nature through my veins.
I love painting and all staff related to creative process.
I love and respect the animals: the best a human can do for an animal is just leave him/her behind.
I love music: all kind of styles going deeply to each other for discovering it properly.
I love to eat and cooking. Eating is one of life pleasures, and every country shows it in different ways.
I love extreme expriences as well as quiet sessions.
I really don't like the prejudices and lack of honestly. I think honestly is one of main things to beginn anything.
When planning something in group I prefeer everybody is ok or agree to do it, I like to feel the confort from the others to find my own one.
I feel myself very curious, kind and I like to find things and work well made.
The main in life is to be happy, one way to find freedom and happyness is to realize nothing is too much important.

PHILOSOPHY

Just worry about doing good things, is the best way to feel yourself happy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I received some couchsurfers and always was a very nice and interesting experience, very satisfying. I think Couch Surfing is one of the best ideas for real, original and good experiences travelling.
I think CS is something really radical nowadays in this kind of world where we live with the society we have in the way how has developed through the time.
And I also think: who does not bet, does not win.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Solo MTB tour through the Alps
-"The Interplane":
It was a great trip I did with my friends during 1 month like Interrail thing but with Plane trips: we bought lots of really cheap flying tickets months before: Seville-London (15 Eur.), London-Dublin (5 Euro going and return), London-Berlin (9 Euro Going and return), Berlin-Stockholm (1,12 Eur. Going and return).
-The "Minibus Tour":
When my friends and me were 21 years old we bought a big van from a friend and did a great and unforgettable trip acorss France and Holland. It was definatelly crazy. We had no insurance and no one permission to that van, just our driving licenses, but everything was so good and no kind of problem none day.
One day we were parking in a park in Paris Just behind Arc du Triumph and we invaded the grass area to relax, rest and cook something. All citizens were quite astonished to watch us there like in home, then a party of Policemens arrive in a van and shouted us what the hell we were doing. We answered just cooking something to eat. After all the scandale I started to switch off the camping gaz kitchen (It was a delicious tortilla), but then a Police told me "hey hey, stop that, you can keep cooking, but when finished just clean everything" So we stayed there like at home. So funny.

One year I was in North of England to improve my English. It was in Leeds, and I was at friend's mother who was really kind. She was divorced but the ex-husband's bike still remained in the garaje: I fitted it and did a wonderful trip alone from Leeds to Inverness (North Scottland) for riding across the Loch Ness. The landscapes were so beautifull.

"Snowflat":
When my friend Iñaki and me knew the snowboarding we felt in love with it. So when we were 20 years old we decided to work hardly this year and rent a flat the following one in Sierra Nevada to be the whole Winter season doing snowboarding.
Then there, we had our home, our new snowboard complete equipment and free pass to night discos cause we had residence in the Ski town, we were there like kings but our pockets were absolut empty. haha, that was so funny too.
One night we decided to rent the flat to find some money but once we closed the deal then we realized: "now, where we're gonna sleep tonight?": we had a fresh night outside under 0°.
