CURRENT MISSION

Keep living the Erasmus life, now back home!

ABOUT ME

I live in Granada, in the south of Spain, where I'm doing a degree in English Studies. I just finished my Erasmus year in Paderborn, Germany, so right now I am very interested in German culture and any chance to practice the language!

I value my privacy and always try to respect others'. I normally have a stereotypical Spanish approach to strangers (HELLO THERE I LIKE YOU LET'S BE BEST FRIENDS), but then I do need lots of personal space and time, so if I'm hosting I may not want to spend all my time with you ;)

I like to think of myself as a nerd. I like stuff, and I LOVE liking stuff. There's nothing I enjoy more in other people than overexcitement. If we share love for something, I would love to spend HOURS talking to you about it. So if we have things in common, that's awesome! Please bring it up to me in the most awkward way you can, and wear your nerdy t-shirt!

PHILOSOPHY

“…because nerds like us are allowed to be unironically enthusiastic about stuff… Nerds are allowed to love stuff, like jump-up-and-down-in-the-chair-can’t-control-yourself love it. Hank, when people call people nerds, mostly what they’re saying is ‘you like stuff.’ Which is just not a good insult at all. Like, ‘you are too enthusiastic about the miracle of human consciousness’.” -John Green
