My name is Roser and I'm from Barcelona. I live in Aarhus (Denmark) since 2015. I'm a freelance illustrator and I do painting classes in a wine shop in the city center of Aarhus (Yes, I know, it's strange job). You can see some of my works in my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/rcusso_illustration/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first experience with Couchsurfing was in 2013 when I was living in Edinburgh. I only used Couchsurfing to join the events and get to know people. There, I got to know the people that will become my closest friends in the city. Since then, I've been joining Couchsurfing events also in Aarhus where I live currently. For me is one of the BEST ways to meet nice people when you start from zero in a new place.

My favorite books are historical, I've read athors like Khaled Hosseini, Noah Gordon, Umberto Eco, Yuval Noah Harari, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was living two months in an old ceramics factory within a social and cultural project in Denmark. It was a very weird experince, but at the same time very interesting. People there were living in a ecological, equal and artistic enviroment. I got to know a new way of living out of the confort zone.

Teach, Learn, Share

I sometimes take with me a sketchbook to draw things that impress me in a good or bad way. I use this notes to create my illustrations afterwards.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share silly stories about random people. I have a very bad memory but luckly I always remember the most strange stories that I've came across.
