About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Thinking about, where to go next..

ABOUT ME

I dont know, you better ask someone who knows me, i never liked the idea of being myself the one that describes me...

BTW: i dont add people i dont know, so no friend request if you don't know me pls.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to do what i like.

Who has a little and doesn't need more, is richer than who has a lot, and needs more.

Time is one of the most expensive things, use yours properly!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the past i was helping at the Barcelona main forum/group and showing my city to some CSers. I also use CS to meet other travelers and locals, while i´m traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been using CS to meet other travelers and locals in my trips, and always have been a very positive experience. The good to meet locals is to learn their cultures and know the places that may be you wont find them in a guide. I hosted ppl a few times in, some in "emergency" situations, but i dont have my couch open because i live in a small open space area... but i like to take walks around my city to show it to other travelers or make day trips around the area.
When im traveling I usually book a hotel/hostel so i have more freedom, but once I was hosted in Lima by another CSer and was a great experience! Thanks Vito!

Some of the people i met here, now are good friends and we keep in touch and have visited each other in different countries or at their/my home, meet their families, etc.

Interests

I like meeting all kind of people. I guess that is what it makes us rich. If you always go with the same group, it makes you watch your life throught the same glass, but if you share time and meet people from other cultures and maybe with a different point of views, it makes you see a bigger picture with more knowledge about everything. Some of this you can just have it traveling, so when i´m not traveling, i can meet other cultures in my own city using CSing!

Photography has been my main activity in the last years, but now, i m taking a break as a job.

Scuba diving: I took my Open Water Course 20 years ago, but i stopped for long time, until i start to travel again, i have been diving in my last trips to Cuba, Philippines, México, Egypt, Thailand, Malasia and and i love it, so i m looking forward to travel more places with dive's spots!
If you have never tried, you should, at least 1 time to try, and if you like it then you can do the course and get the license that you will be able to use it everywhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Be born! :oP

Teach, Learn, Share

I think i'm always learning about life, i try to be with my eyes wide open, and i think that is one of my best "qualities"... i´ve learned and still learning from my life and from others people´s lifes..
I can teach you to play golf, as i ´m a profesional golfer hahha i don´t work anymore in that business but it was a big part of my life.
I know about photography that i learned by my own.. and i have worked for 10 years doing diferents specialities, diferent sports, events, product, fashion, interiorism ... also i know about Real state and many other things i have learned during my life and the rest from me, u will have to figure out by yourself! :o)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to cook for other people, share histories, talk about life and show my favourites places around my city.
