CURRENT MISSION

Travelling around Asia for one year.

ABOUT ME

Hey I am Lucía from Madrid, Spain. I studied Biology in Madrid. I love painting and cycling. A few years ago I start practising some circus arts (monocycle, juggling, aerial silks and chinese mast). I really love it and I met so awesome people!
I have just finished my PhD in Molecular Biology and I start a new adventure: travel around Asia for one year. I had this idea in my mind for a long time ago. I love travelling and just from the moment that I travelled around part of South America my idea of knowing a country have changed. This time I am not travellig alone, Pablo is my couple and partner in this epic experience. I am sure we will meet amazing people during this year.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It is a good way to meet people and to know more about any country

I did Couchsurfing in Ecuador and it was a really incredible experiencie. Also I guest an ecuatorian guy in my flat in Madrid.

Interests

I love travelling, and play the piano ( since I was 7) but I would like to play saxo or accordion in the future. I also paint pictures with different materials and I love using bike as a way of transport although in Madrid it is a little but difficult, there is not bike culture. I also enjoy the mountain. The north of Spain, with the sea and the green mountains, is my ideal place.
