About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people, continue learning from everyone I meet. Try to do the most to make all this a better place to live for others.

ABOUT ME

I started here because I belived it was a very good way to tavel, sharing experiences with local people and to know better about any place. I couldn't host for a long period but because I had a lot of good experiences with couch surfing, now that I can I want to host again.

I love nature, to listen the wind, a waterfall or the sea waves, and I like to enjoy it alone or with others.

I like music form most of styles(but music), like dancing and singing, like a way to renew energy. Dance or sing while cooking, or in the shower after a bad day can make you see things clearer. I've played as drumer in some music and percussion bands.

I've finished my studies in biological science at the Universidad de Barcelona, after an intership in Mexico.

II grew up in Sant Quirze del Valles, a town at about 25 Km. from Barcelona and well-connected, not so crowded. I like it because it still has some forest arround it and you have spaces to go walking with no cars neither houses.

I've been working with children at houses where they spend some days with their school teachers, and we prepare and do the activities for them during the day; also summercamps. I like it so much...kids are one of the funyest things in this world and let you lern many things about yourself, about treating others, and relationships.

Currenty I'm looking for a new place to travel and settle for some time, searching for new experiences and knowledge.

PHILOSOPHY

I think that intercomunication can show us a way to love, respect and worry about minoritarian and pr marginated cultures, wich can be as rich as ours in many ways.
I want people to be concient about how important is the nature and its obserbation, and how much be need to take care of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am living in my hometown for a while. For those who instead of staying in Barcelona all day drunk, all day party, would like to visit it but also know from arround, I will be glad to recive you at out home for a period.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've travelled arround switzerland with my band(6 people) and staying at different houses. People there were so kind and we didn't have any problem.
Once in guadalajara I've hosted four french people and an English couple. Also other people out form couchsurfing.
I've always had good experiences hosting others and also beeing hosted.

Interests

I'm a guy interested in most of all.
I'm really interested about how other people lives its life, take the better and learn from the worse.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Get the top of a high mountain and look arround 360 degrees.
Climb a wall... It makes you feel so fragil, and makes you give the best.
Play drums around the city for about 7 hours... people was dancing crazy.
Climb a 50-60m. high tree with no rope and sit at the top branches to look around (the nine tree, at UCSC, some of you may know it)
Jump from a 12-15 meters cliff to the sea. Amazing feeling while falling.
To free baby turtles on the beaches of the Pacific ocean.
Go on an express 5.000km. trip with my legs and my thumb around the NW Mexico
To be at the Roger Waters concert of The Wall in 2011, with the lovely girlfriend I had.
Eat the vegetables that we grow at home and discover what are vegetables.

I become amazed with things which can be simple but that I enjoy so much.

Teach, Learn, Share

In your live You'll harvest what you have planted.
Trust yourself, we can do more that we think, we just need to learn how.
We can learn from every experience if we want to, but need to know what's the leson.
