About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Skate and Travel

ABOUT ME

Of his bones are coral made; Those are pearls that were his eyes: Nothing of him that doth fade. But doth suffer a sea-change. Into something rich and strange.

PHILOSOPHY

A little bit romantic, a little bit sceptic :

" Love is vanity,
Selfish in its beginning as its end,
Except where 'tis a mere insanity. "

Lord Byron.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Normality is a defeat, so I try to participate in CS showing my country in a very different way. By Bike, Rollerblades, and sometimes showing specials places that people just don't see in the classical tourist way that people use to visit a city

I just offer what I'd like to receive if I go surfing a Couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new on CS for now :). But someday I hope to be able to write here a lot of interesting and nice stories.

I offer my house to everyone healthy people who is interested in visit Madrid and it's nearest places.
