About Me

Im from the pheriphery of Madrid. I enjoy long walks and talks, beer and music, jokes and philosophy.

I been living in this city for all my live except for a couple of years that i have studied abroad. One year in the USA another one in Denmark and two more in France. I'm still in France working for an audiovisual association in the city of Lille.
Thanks to my family I've become a travellers pretty soon: I've been to africa twice -Tanzania and South Africa-, and once to Latin America: Costa Rica,l. My last big trip with them was to la India.

I have travel with my friends by train mostly all over europe too.

I like filming, writing about and during my trips.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is a new way to connect to people and cultures. A much better way to travell if you willing to really know the places where you are going.

Finding out people willing to share with you their places and knowledges without asking you anything back its actually a great philosophy that im willing to practice back too.

Interests

Love and Listen all kind of music: Jazz, Blues, Rock, Flamenco. Some reggae, rap punk and trance too.

Drinking beer while philosophizing about life,joking and hanging out till late.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite ones?
If you ask for blues and rock the great union music history did was John Lee Hooker and Van Morrison.
If you wanna get the road down to the 70s I will chose the Stones from the Beatles and switch them for the Clash when the 80s arrive.
I will listen to all the 90s you want from pop to rap passing through electronical but propbably come back home with just the records of Nirvana and Extremoduro (Spain rock group)

I love movies with pointless endings. Like most of the Coen Brothers or Tarantino ones. Big Lebowsky is one of a hell one. Pulp Fiction another genious one. From Spain I just watched a fiction- documentary movie call Quinqui stars which was better than all Hollywood combine.

I also like watching TV series: Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Californication, Its Always sunny in Philadelphia...

The catcher in the rye or Trainspotting, now I'm into hard stuff like Nietzsche or Thoreau
I enjoy poetry and comics also.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travel all around the south and east coast of Spain sleeping in their lovely and comfortable beaches.

I went to France for a summer and stay 3 years!
