About Me

ABOUT ME

I like being honest and say the truth, although sometimes can be hard. I can be very talkative or say nothing.I like laughing and make people laugh.I like cooking and eating. I have vertigo. I like cooking for others and others to cook for me, and try new dishes. I don´t like shirts and ties. I don´t like shoes. I like sandals and love walking around barefoot. I like pinneaple, strawberries, kiwi and chocolate, and love a good tiramisu. I am stubborn. I like trying different and new things. I don´t like rings but I like bracelets. I like sailing and feel the wind in my face. I love the sea. I don´t like too much crowded places, a concert is always an exception. I love music & concerts. I like talking with strangers. I like painting with my fingers and get dirty. I am a tidy-untidy person.I like looking at people and guess where they are from and how their lives are. I like that I have found my place, Barcelona. I like that still have to find out what I wanna do. I don´t mind giving a step back because I know that later on I will give two forward. I like learning things from others rather than from books. I can´t do two things at the same time, but I would love it. I like learning things about myself. I like Mondays. I don´t like complaints. I like going to bed at night knowing one more thing. I like seeing the glass half full and not half empty. I like getting lost and then find my way. I like being positive. I like tattos and love mine. I like "bicing" at night in Barcelona. I like green and blue. I like details and gestures. I like people to surprise me. I like not having expectations when I travel, that´s why I travel without guidebooks. Sometimes I like making plans, and sometimes I don´t. I don´t like farewells. I don´t like saying goodbye. I don´t like choosing. I am very curious. I like making questions and I reply a question with another question. I like talking more about likes than dislikes.
And I like than I am happy.

PHILOSOPHY

With a smile you get things easier, what you give it´s what you get. I think a person should always be nice with everybody even if you meet someone who is rude with you, otherwise you would be like him.
"No tengo todo calculado ni mi vida resuelta, sólo tengo una sonrisa y espero una de vuelta" (Calle 13)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just a few hiking and concerts, not too many and hosting people from time to time. In my next trips I would like trying to find a couch, and meet someone who can show me another side of a country.

I love traveling, eating and cooking, sports, reading on the beach, walking on the forest, chess, music and concerts, talking, painting, photography, watching movies, philosophy, snorkling, playing football, windsurf,...
