About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Backpacking through LatinAmerica (that is why I cannot host people right now...)

ABOUT ME

Quite hard to describe oneself... I would have asked some friend to do it for me!
I think I am sociable, and very curious about anything. I am used to live in shared flat with any kind of people. I'm rather active, I like parties, talking with friends or unknown people, speak foreign languages (spanish and english, but I can try others!), cooking and tasting new meals... Willing to have new or crazy experiences, I'm able to have a swim for New Year's Eve, whatever the cold the water can be, and to taste some unbelievable food... I won't talk about my defects too much if I want you to host me :p

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is just what you decide your life to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In fact I had some couchsurfing experience before creating a profile here... I went travelling through México, and I had no hostal reserved, so I just met people and improvised, several times people offered spontaneously to host me... this way, I stayed 4 days in a island, in fishermen's houses. I shared their way of life, and I spent all days long with them, to see how they manage to be so happy with just a fresh fish with tortillas for lunch, a beer, music and some friends...

Interests

Just love to meet new people from all over the world and to try to understand their different culture and tradition. .

Music, Movies, and Books

I try to read books and see movies in original languages.
I like different types of music or literature...
Some examples of authors : Philip Pullman, Carlos Fuentes, Anna Gavalda, Nabokov, Unamuno, Stephen King, John Irving...
Music : Mana, Cultura Profética, Jarabe de Palo, Buika, Saez, Contreband, Jil is Lucky...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

*Sharing a meal and sleeping in the house of a Nepali family in the mountains, without speaking the same languages, and feeling some incredible feeling of communication...
*Travel on my own in Mexico with my backpack and meeting all kind of people
*Trek on Marocca up to the summit of Toubkal (4167m)

Teach, Learn, Share

All that I know can be shared :)
