Overview
About Me
I´m an outgoing guy who loves to travel. I usually enjoy knowing other cultures and making friends around the world. I'm friendly and open-minded.
Currently, I am doing a PhD in Neuroscience in Bilbao.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think that Couchsurfing it´s a great idea to know new people and know new cities. When I search a place in Couchsurfing, I am not looking only "a place where spend the night", I want to make new friends and experience something new. I would like go to drink a beer and go out with you or simply knowing your city with you. So when I host someone I try to do this way.
Interests
I have studied Biotechnology so I am very interested in sciences, specially about neuroscience. I also love running, read books, to draw and travel. I play the clarinet and a little the piano. Now I am learning to play the guitar.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Last summer I traveled around Europe (Germany, Poland, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia) doing hitchhiking. It was an amazing experience. A different way to know the countries and the people from there.
Teach, Learn, Share

I also love to cook so we could cook something together. I love learning new things.
