About Me

I'm a young man from Barcelona, I enjoy discovering new people and I have an open mind. Since I finished high school I have been traveling and living in different countries and cities, learning about the world and myself.
I'm actually traveling across Scotland all the way up to Orkney, where I am going to start my professional diving studies, I am also looking for a University where to start my degree in archaeology or anthropology.
I believe that the world is a place full of great opportunities and beautiful people who can learn to enjoy each other.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm planning some professional and leisure travels around the world and I would love to meet other travelers and people similar to me (or not!). I also would like to help travelers who come to Barcelona or to wherever I am.

Interests

I am very interested in history, anthropology and diving, and I hope this three things can be part of my future career.
I read a lot of books and I feel strongly attracted to meditation and buddhism.
I am very interested in music, I play some instruments like guitar, piano, trumpet and I used to sing in a little reggae band. I'm very interested in theatre too. I also love sports, old cinema, nutrition, ecology and photography.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been in Morocco with a little ONG to visit a village called Ouzina and to give their inhabitants some school materials, food and toys, also for the review of a waterhole installation. It was an amazing experience where I discovered the country and myself, ask me about the whole story when you meet me!
