Overview
About Me
I live in Mataró (close to Barcelona). As a traveller, I'm interested going further than simply jumping from one sight and monument to the other. Everywhere I go, I like to see how people live there to be able to understand a little bit more the culture that is receiving me during those days.
My other main hobbies are, well, nothing special: music, books, mountaing biking, running, enjoying nature
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meet local people and travellers and share experiences with all of them! Which is the best thing that you can do in this world.
Music, Movies, and Books
Not a fan of these lists, but...
Some of my favorite authors: W. G. Sebald, Borges, Julien Gracq, Emmanuel Carrère, Cesare Pavese, Raymond Carver, Thomas Bernhard...
Music that I love: Sufjan Stevens, Grouper, Aphex Twin, Morton Feldman, John Adams, A Tribe Called Quest, Kendrick Lamar, Spoon, Coil, Popol Vuh & most of the 'krautrock' bands, Eric Dolphy... (such a random list, but it's just to say a few of them, I can listen to lots of different things...)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Travelling, that's for sure!
My last trip to Iran, for example, was the most amazing thing I've done in my entire life. Visiting Persepolis, climbing the third highest mountain in the country (mount Sabalan, more than 4800m!), crossing its deserts, hanging out with local people in Isfahan and Shiraz... The best thing ever.
