About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Living and working in what I love, sharing de creativity.

ABOUT ME
I’m originally from Spain, but South America has been home for the past 14 years. I’ve wandered through more than 40 countries, always with a camera in hand — capturing stories, moments, and the magic in between.
I believe in the power of collaborative art to inspire change and bring people together. That’s why I spend a lot of my time working on documentary films, flying drones, and leading community cinema workshops.
These days, I live deep in the Amazon, where I co-direct a floating film festival and work hand-in-hand with local communities — while continuing to travel and share cinema in all its forms across the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Couchsurfing because I still believe in the kindness of people. I truly enjoy cultural exchange, connecting through stories, and discovering different ways of seeing the world — and cooking it too. For me, sharing a meal, a laugh, or a moment of honest conversation is what makes life meaningful.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ser mordido por un delfín rosa en la Amazonía/Being bitten by a pink dolphin in the Amazon.

Teach, Learn, Share

Normally my house is always full, then I can offer a good tour, food, beer, good conversation, information about travels,

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m always happy to share good stories, laughter, and meals — especially if we cook together. I love exchanging ideas, music, and perspectives on life, culture, and the world.

If you’re into film, I can tell you about the documentaries I’ve shot deep in the jungle, or show you a few tricks with a camera or drone. I also love learning from others, so whether it’s your favorite recipe, a book, or just a good conversation — I’m all in.
