About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To kill Chuck Norris

ABOUT ME

I was born in Bilbao, went to uni there and felt that my life was like 'guided'. One had to find a good job, then a wife, get married, pay the mortgage and live happily ever after.
Instead, after uni I went to live in London, where my horizon broadened -a lot-. After that came Paris, London again, Edinburgh and currently Berlin! I love to keep moving, so I'll keep doing it as long as I can.

After uni I worked in IT, and now I've decided to jump to entrepreneurship and do it on my own. It is not easy, so if you are interested in investing some money in my project I'll be more than happy to have a chat :)

I'm nice, fun and do not bite strangers, so don't be afraid!

Anyway it's always hard to describe oneself in one of these texts and sounds kind of weird to me when I read it over,so the best is to have a chat with me in person!

PHILOSOPHY

I think I said it before up there:
Leaving things better than I found them.

Anyway the question is too deep to answer in a form box in the internet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I offer my coach in Berlin! (actually it is a nice and comfortable matress)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never couch surfed using the website, although I have certainly done it lots of times with friends, both going to their homes or hosting them.

In Berlin, my flatmate Jens in member of couchsurfing and recently we had a visit of two students from Amsterdam.
That's when I learned of the website, thought it was a great idea and decided to join!

Interests

- Languages and the different subtle ways you can express things
- Cooking. My 'tortilla de patata' is slowly approaching perfection.
- Travelling
- Economics
- Music
- TV series: I'm addict to a number of them
- Volunteering and development
- Philosophical discussions
- Computers (Not too geek, I could be far worse)
- Beers in different countries. So far, Pilsner Urquell is the best for me. I can say 'Two beers please in 23 languages', and that number could be made up.
- Psychology, human behaviour
- Ok I can't think of anything else right now
