I'm Alex, living in sunny Barcelona with my husband, Juan, and pup Mikki! Our cozy flat is perfect for unwinding after exploring the city. When I'm not cooking, repairing or building tech stuff (happy to teach and share!),
I am practicing capoeira, or delving into personal growth. You might find me (us) working from home during the week, so hosting inside the week is quiet limited but sometimes we make an exception. Weekends are therefore for adventures! If you enjoy stimulating conversations, are dog-friendly, and are open-minded about the LGBTQ+ community, let's chat! Keep in mind that we are really tolerant and happy to welcome you, but you should have read this profile and add in your message to me two things: 1. The word "sunshine" and 2. maybe a bit about you and who you might travel with?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe there's no better way to experience the world than through the eyes of its people! Sharing stories, exploring new places together, and maybe even building lifelong friendships along the way – that's what makes Couchsurfing magical. I'm excited to open my home and learn from you, and who knows? Maybe one day I'll be the one on your couch!

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: Love losing myself in epic fantasy and sci-fi worlds, but sometimes a mind-blowing documentary brings me back to reality. Currently reading Atomic Habbits.

Music: My playlist jumps from the energy of house and techno to the rhythms of salsa. Lately, I'm hooked on the soulful sounds of folk-rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to a new city in Germany was daunting, but I ended up finding a fantastic group of friends and the amazing world of capoeira! Proof that sometimes the best things happen when you step outside your comfort zone.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach: Happy to share capoeira moves or whip up a healthy meal. Know some German basics and always down to troubleshoot tech problems. Interested in personal development? Let's swap insights!

Learn: Eager to pick up new cooking skills, especially local specialties. Would love to improve my Spanish/Catalan. Always fascinated by different perspectives on life and business.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Love to lend a hand with cooking and cleaning - always happy to share a meal and good conversation!

If you're learning German, let's practice! Or, perhaps you can help me improve my Spanish/Catalan.
