Overview
About Me
I'm a free person project!
I was born in a town near Madrid, and since I was a child I've dreamed of traveling and discovering stuff beyond what people who surrounded me could offer.
Now I'm trying to survive in the jungle of materialism without losing my sanity.
I don't like injustices. Nor lies. I've never have had so many resources which means all I've done and all I've got, I've done it by myself, what makes me feel truly proud!
Currently living in London, I work as babysitter while I'm studying. My mission is traveling around the world, but living in different places to discover lots of realities. But stop being serious!
I love spontaneus people, naturalness, and simplicity :D
Quite introspective, but I always have time to joke and play the fool. I'm very cheerful and energic, but I love longs conversations though.
There's time for everything and you ALWAYS can learn something about everyone.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm in here because I think is one of the best ways to introduce yourself in the world traveler.
Because you can meet awesome people, make friends all over the world, because someday I would like to be able to host people. It's great to hear stories about people's life, share thoughts, and be able to reflect about them. That's what makes you BIG.
We're so lucky of living in the technologic era, all are facilities so let's use it!
Interests
Traveling?
Walking. Definitely. It doesn't matter how far, you can reach it by walking. For the moment is the best to see the world, at least until I have money enough to have my own air balloon. Or until I have enough saved to do skydiving (!!!!!), whatever, :P
Photography. I could say is my main hobby. But I'm not that good hahaha
Reading, learning. I mean, all I can learn about everything. I'm very interested in how different people can be, so I have not prejudices. And this rule can be applied for everything.
Psychology, sociology, history.
I like to read thousands of articles, texts, books. So all I find and all someone can suggest me is very welcome.
Life without music is not the same, so, as before, all you can suggest me. I like all music styles, what I normally listen is rock, rock blues, experimental rock, but also classic music, reggae, latin music, house, you know. All that could make me feel something.
I have great fun when I dance. I like arabic dance, and love going to party!!! Having fun at any time!
Food! Curious and definitely determinant of culture. I find fascinating how different kinds of food are from different areas just because of the location and how that have influenced a culture.
Loooooooooong and stimulant talks! Also silence.
Acid humor.
Appreciating little things. Smells, views, touches, sounds, tastes. Moments. It sounds very idealistic but I really do. I like to put my soul in every thing I do xD
