About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying every aspect of the life ,now is time for my family and friends in Madrid and travelling :)

I am an Electrical Engineer, graduated at the Technical Universities of Madrid (Spain) and Munich (Germany), with 15 years experience in the Energy business, worked for big international companies like General Electric, and TSOs, in several european countries. I continued studying and developing myself in several personal aspects and skills, music, and, the most interesting part, into coaching. I decided to have a career Break...spending time with my family in Spain, travelling and ... projects! During my trip I would like to volunteer visiting technical universities and meeting engineering students in their last year to have discussions about the "real" working world, the electrical industry, exchange...giving some tips about challenges, problems that nobody told me before and costed me not only energy and time, but also sleeping hours. If this sounds interesting for you and your colleagues, just let me know, we can organize a tea evening and having a nice time!

ABOUT ME

I am an open-minded, courious (etc. etc. etc.!) person that sometimes wants to run away of the boring routine and wants to live new experiences. I feel I live in the continuous dilemma of choosing between settle down or not (I think most of you understand me, right?)
Friends are an important part of my life, they definitely mean a lot for me.

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to enjoy every moment that I can...I think that unfortunately there are enough awful moments, well, let's try to increase the good ones!

En la vida, el numero de encuentros es limitado. Cada encuentro es precioso y por eso me hace muy feliz conocerte.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do love to meet localse wherever I am...that's the best part of travelling...by far. And also a wanderful way to make good friends in my own city!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met several (and interesting) people by travelling for chating and walking around.

Interests

I do want to spend all the time that I can with my friends. Nowadays the old ones are spread worldwide, but new ones appeared in my live.
Of course, traveling, and knowing new people and cultures!
Music is one of my interests, I used to play piano (I do want to try it again) and just started with saxophone (still learning...)

Music, Movies, and Books

In mind I have as books "high fidelity", "el camino" (M.Delibes), "Was wir nicht haben brauchen Sie nicht", and nowadays I am reading a great book a very good friend wrote (Irati, just in Spanish), but not so many movies (anyway I do like films as "Big fish", "Butterfly effect" and "Slumdog Millionaire").
Regarding music, Rock, Pop, Clasical and Jazz are my favourites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To born...study...travel...live and grow up with my frinds! The tour we made through India will be unforgettable. And recently, just enjoying free time in my 2 months trip around south America

Teach, Learn, Share

I only learn (well...I try) languages...english and german, in few weeks also French. Sometimes I wonder if I could learn Chinese...let's see!
I always try to share a smile or a funny comment, sometimes people need to smile more...
