About Me

It's been a few years that I don't use Couchsurfing because I was living in the United States and not traveling outside as much as before but now I'm going to start a travel journey again, at least it's what I'm aiming for.

I grew up in the suburbs of Barcelona and 8 years ago I moved to the Unites States. I'm in a transition moment where many changes will happen hopefully soon. I'm about to launch my own business and I want to move out of the US in the next year.

I just travelled on a cruise crossing the Pacific with a community called NomadCruise which is made by digital nomads. That's why I'll be in Australia in just a few days.

I am an independent woman who likes traveling and outdoors. I like to discover cities and urban communities but I also love the silence you find in a mountain peak. I'm known for my easy and loud laugh and I like to be surrounded by people as well as I enjoy my solo time. I like chatting with people to exchange experiences and thinking perspectives (that's why I loved CS since the beginning!), specially while traveling.

We can have fun with deep conversations and good wine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have couchsurfed in my 7 months trip in Asia (2012-13) and I have hosted curious travelers at my house when I was living with my ex-partner in a small city 1 hour north of Barcelona (2013-14-15-16).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Earth is huge so we have a lot of people with different interests in life. It's really nice to know why people travel, the purpose of their trip, from where they are coming from and what they want to know about the place they are in. I love to listen people's stories either to find connection or inspiration.

Music, Movies, and Books

I recently watched the documentary "Losing sight of shore" because I met one of the 4 women team that rawed accross the Pacific ocean. It was beyond inspiring and powerful.

I lately have read books about personal growth and love relationships as well as inspirational travelers who have done "crazy" journeys.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paraglading, skydiving, seeing majestic places like the Gobi desert, the Alaskan mountains, the Russian winter in Baikal lake, netfeeding humpback whales in Alaska, crocodiles in Nicaragua and Costa Rica and be in remote places like Samoa or Vanuatu.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to listen to your true self. I can share you many stories and I'll be all ears to listen to you to learn from you and your experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

It's all about the little things. The smallest details can be the ones that make you the happiest. Sometimes it's that simple.
