About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm an adventurous person, who enjoy traveling either alone or with company, looking for new experiences to live, new people to meet to fulfill my life. I am curious about everything, willing to learn anything. I want to know about you also: everyone is an expert on something, every person knows something that you might not, so I am trying to collect all this knowledge from everyone I meet.
Long conversations are essential, real connections with people and I believe we can create these intimate bonds with everyone. I listen more than I talk; I am a bit quiet and introvert, although sometimes I can be completely the opposite, depending on the environment I am.
I thought that love run the world, love towards anyone and anything. I had my hippy times wearing these pink glasses where I wanted to create a wonderful world when I couldn't see badness in people. It was then when I became vegetarian, I started practicing yoga and mindfulness, being as eco as I could possibly be and I still being, but I guess that now, in a more realistic way, where I accept badness in people, different points of views and the fact that I am not always right.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I always, or almost always had great experiences doing Couchsurfing. I also did workaway and helpx, mostly positive experiences too. new ones And those moments become forever stuck in your memories, sometimes changing you a little or redefining some aspects of yourself. Although I believe that we are different every day, for good or bad, that we were another person a little bit different moments ago, and these changes are triggered by every experience, even if they seemed nonsense.

Interests

EVERYTHING. And every time I get new ones. Like everyone, I listen to music, any kind. I love Bob Dylan, Loreena Mckennit, Wi Mertens, Yann Tiersen, Joan Baez. I do like jazz and classical music, classic french music, hippy also, and pop from the 80s. I like what I listen on the radio, but not always. I used to be a fan of Celtic music from Ireland, and I guess I still being.

Weird and out of the ordinary movies are my thing I suppose, but I end up rewatching films that I like because I know they were good. I guess I like also classic, cult cinema. I love Stanley Kubrick if I have to choose a director.

Nature also, little towns, hiking, hitch-hiking, cooking and eating, singing and playing. Reading sometimes, and I am not a fan of tecnologies, but I have an old smartphone with no data that I got two years ago. Not a fan of facebook and I don't have Instagram or anything else. Regardless of my opinions, I've become quite addicted to the phone though.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not many incredible things. I wanted to be a little wild when I was 19, so I decided to move around hitchhiking, and I did. I travelled almost all around Ireland by this means all by my self for 6 months. At that age, with a friend of mine, we also hitchhike from Barcelona all the way to Paris and the way back sleeping wherever we could with a tend. Those were pretty cool trips.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I want to shared opinions, experiences, stories. There is not much I can offer you. I am always a nice company, or that is what people say. I like to listen, conversate as I said before. Each one of us could write a book, and there is always so many incredible stories that you can extract from them. I am easy going and I don't get bored easily. I like bord games nights, playing cards... I also enjoy cooking very much and this is something I always do when I am "workawaing" or "couchsurfing". And singing while playing the guitar, if you have one.
