About Me

Hey there! We are a friendly and outgoing couple who are always willing to meet new people from here and there. We consider ourselves (well, all our friends say so!) very talkative people who also enjoy hearing and learning from other people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with others and to share a piece of life with people from abroad!

We have recently joint Couchsurfing because we are traveling to Iran in a few days and we have thought that having the opportunity of staying with local people might be a great way to get to know local Iranian people as well as to be the best way to immerse to their beautiful culture and history. Also, from now on, as we live in a very open nice house in Barcelona, it would be nice to have some guests too. In the past we have hosted some couchsurfer friends of friends, so time to make it official!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share all I know about my city: Barcelona. Despite it has become too touristy, our city has amazing places to see. We would love to walk our host to the nicest spots in Barcelona, as well as in Catalonia, a region that has mountain, natural parks, turquoise blue sea, historical spots, great gastronomy and amazing festivals and cultural events among others!

Also, we would love to teach, learn or share: cooking, yoga, dancing, languages, history, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What we would love to share with hosts are nice conversations. Me and my girlfrind Gisela (we are traveling together) are great listeners and we enjoy talking and debating topics.
