Hi fellow Couchsurfers!! My name is Aitor and I am a Spanish guy from Barcelona who has been enjoying living in London for the last 8 years.
As all of you guys travelling is one of the biggest passions of my life and I feel really lucky to have visited 3 continents and 15 countries.
I'm a very sociable person, always happy and ready for a laugh. Always ready to try something else.
I enjoy discovering new places, their people and their cultures. When I heard about couchsurfing I though it was a fantastic idea. I like the idea of try to be like a local when travel to another country and couchsurfing makes it way easier and funnier.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think Couchsurfing is an amazing tool with a great communitty of like minded travellers who can help each other. What's better than discover something with a local helping you out?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my happiests moments was the road trip I did from Orlando to Miami by secondary roads on my first trip to United States. The sense of freedom and exploration was amazing.
Scuba diving in Raja Yai in Thailand was pretty amazing as well.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you all the tricks needed to move around the beautiful city of London. Where to eat,what to see,where to party, and the hidden gems timeout won't talk about.
Also I can talk to you in 3 languages. Are you up for Catalan?
