Personal Description

Always smiling, and generally up for new adventures, I’m an energetic out-going person, curious and pretty active. I love learning new things and meeting new people. I can’t stand still, I have to be always doing something...I love to move around and travel!

How I Participate in CS

At present I am living in Bournemouth in a Hall of Residence so there is no way of hosting people! However I can show you around or go for a coffee whenever you want!

Interests

I really enjoy being alive and all the great experiences and people there are out there. I like to do just about anything, and I am passionate about trying new things. Learning is the greatest occupation in my life!!!
I’m crazy about travelling and meeting new people! I love reading, the theatre and hanging out with my friends (pretty classic, isn’t it?). Music is also in the top of my list, as well as going to the movies (american romantic ones are my favourites), learning languages (yeaahhh I’m a bit freak sometimes…) and taking pictures!

Philosophy

No more "shoulda, woulda, coulda" and a bit of "Carpe Diem"

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

Music, Movies, Books

All kinds of movies (except terror or thrillers).In music…all kinds too! Specially rock, and the classics ones such as Queen, Rollings, Beatles,...
I enjoy reading almost everything! And I’m not embarrassed to recognise it…I love Harry Potter books!!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach? Well I can help people trying to learn Spanish or Catalan, I can show you around in Barcelona and I know how to do funny nautical key rings...

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

I saw the sunrise from the top of the Sinai Mountain, slept in the Machu Pichu site, and celebrated New Years Eve in the middle of the Caribbean...

Ana is the always-smiling kind of person. She's fun, talkative, active and 200% open-minded, we had a GREAT time while visiting Barcelona together.
I certainly hope keeping in touch with her cause she's somebody you can count on :)

A fully objective reference (due to it being more than four months late) for Ana! She really is a gifted, full of positive energy, young Spanish girl. Meet her under any circumstances (we encountered some odd ones weather-wise) and you will most positively have a great time! Hola Ana!

We had such a good time in Amsterdam wondering around and going into different coffee shops. Then we partied in Brussels which was really cool.
