About Me

During this summer I'm traveling so I cannot host (because I'm not there and also don't have a flat). After October I will be living in Salamanca so I will can host everybody who wants!

I studied journalism. I like it so much but in these times working as that, sucks 95%. Maybe I think so because I'm so creative and it doesn't give me what I need. I like to write, to play music and listen to it, to draw, to film, to organice cultural projects and events... and I'm spending my time doing all these things as much as I can. I'm definitely in art... Don't really know which kind of art more I like..

Feeling locked in my intensive (but not economically efficient) routine of trying to survive from what I love, I've just realized that what I really really love is learning and knowing different and interesting things and people, that's why traveling has started to be a need and a passion.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling you realize that it's all about helping each other. I've already made hundreds of km by hitchhiking and it's been because of people... I have a bunch of beautiful experiences! I've been hosted by and I hosted unknown people a lot of times before starting in couchsurfing. Now I really want to use this interesting and useful tool for travelers and open mind people!

Interests

I'm playing in a band called Baxtards (Punk Rock).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: pfff.. Me gusta demasiado la música para recomendar cosas concretas pero a ver, el rocknroll de los 50, el de los 60, 70, 80, y siempre.. :) El flamenco y algunos derivados mestizos, reggae y más derivados, la electrónica y el rap.. Osea todo vamos, siempre que esté hecho con alma. Creo que Rancid es la banda que más me ha marcado.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming in the Luminous Lagoon of Jamaica, have five car accidents and still being alive, have a 10 dates tour in a role with the band, have a band and make my own wine with my grandfather.

Teach, Learn, Share

The conclusion I got yesterday: if we put back the real value on the things maybe life will recover its sense.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good food, advise them what to visit and share talking as much as possible!

Countries I’ve Visited

Czech Republic, France, Jamaica, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, United Kingdom, United States
