About Me

Right now I’m living out in the countryside in Asturias. It’s a rural spot, pretty quiet, and you’ve got to walk or bike a bit to get to the nearest town (Nava). I've got a little bit of land here, and I’d love to start applying some permaculture ideas 💚.

I’m into all sorts of outdoor stuff like hiking 🥾⛰, biking 🚴‍♀️, concerts 🎸, folk dancing 🕺...., but also indoor such as board games (where I will probably beat you 🙂‍↔️). I love being around people and animals, they just make everything better 😍

I like questioning myself 🤔, it helps me grow and stay curious. I’m always up for learning new things, especially when it comes to different cultures, food, and languages.

I’ve done some volunteering both locally and abroad (like in the Saharawi refugee camps, or teaching English in Thailand), and I’ve helped out with a few local permaculture projects too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To explore the world through meaningful connections,and also to host people! I love meeting folks from different cultures, sharing stories, and giving others the chance to discover the rural side of Asturias. There's a lot of beauty out here that's worth showing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quitting a well-paid, stable job to take a year off backpacking through Asia, doing volunteering projects, and traveling by camper van around northern Spain.

No regrets at all, but the opposite 🫢

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m always up for learning from other cultures: languages, cooking 🧑‍🍳, ways of living...

Super interested in permaculture 💚 and DIY stuff too , especially anything around natural building or home projects.

Furthermore, I’m currently learning shibari 🪢, from an artistic, somatic and therapeutic perspective, more about connection, trust, and body awareness than anything else.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, curiosity, and a relaxed vibe. I’m happy to share meals, stories, music, maybe a bit of yoga or a good hike if you're up for it. 😇
