CURRENT MISSION

To explore British Columbia and the US West Coast eventually

ABOUT ME

Hi there!

I'm a social, unorganized (but clean!!), procrastinating (but thorough and sometimes efficient) guy who likes to travel!

I like to do new things! I like to have a beer or a lot, to talk in the afternoon over a cup of tea, to go to the crazy parts of town and discover, cook and eat together, go for walks in the city or in the wilderness.

I had my first and only experience with couchsurfing, in July 2009 when I stayed in Bordeaux for a couple of days and I'd recommend anyone to do it!

Right now I'm in British Columbia in Canada to study half a semester at UBC and to visit friends from when I was an exchange student in Kamloops. I hope to get around BC and maybe the West Coast and do some couchsurfing while I'm at it!

PHILOSOPHY

Stay a child, but a smarter one!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Las Fiestas del Torrico - Spanish street party in Teruel, close to Valencia. 65,000 people showed up in an old beautiful village of 20,000 inhabitants and partied all night long for a week, drinking and throwing wine at each other, with music, food, drinks and party-going people of all ages around every corner.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can give good advice about how to hitchhike since I hitchhiked about 4000 kilometers through Europe in 2009, one of my best trips ever (and also where my amazing thing done/seen took place).
I'd like to be a handy-man, to learn how to draw, or to play a new instrument.
Sharing cooking tips with foreigners rocks!
