Carles, a native of Spain, is currently studying abroad at UNCW. Three words that his friends would use to decribe him are sassy, adorable and friendly. Read on to learn more about his adventures in the U.S. so far!

HC: What is a perfect date like for you?

I am a food lover, so going to a nice restaurant for diner and having a cuddling night would be it.

HC: What’s your favorite thing about uncw so far?

All the great people I have got to meet while I am here. I made a lot of good friendships that I will never forget about regardless of which part of the world I find myself.

HC: What’s been your most awkward moment at uncw so far?

The First time I met my roommate in my junior year he did not know I was gay, so he would always try to introduce all type of girls at any party we went to. The awkward moment came when I had to tell him “Jake, I don’t like any of them, and I never will…”

HC: Celebrity crush?

Emma Watson. Isn’t she perfect?

HC: If you could have dinner with one person, dead or alive, real or imaginant, who would it be?

It would be my great-granddad. Even though he is still alive, he has alzheimer and he does not recognize anyone anymore. I would just love to talk to him again as I used to.

HC: Hobbies?

I love swimming, working, working out, reading and traveling.  That’s what my life is about. I am a European traveler.

HC: Favorite Quote?

“Von nichts kommt nichts,” which in German means, from nothing comes nothing. It reminds me that if you have a goal you need to work for it, it will not just happen unless you make it happen.

HC: What’s been your favorite thing about America so far?

Not being able to drink until I was 21. Just kidding. I love how this country is built in a great mixture and variety of cultures and races. Also, I love all the geographic areas for tourism that America has; I need a couple more years to to see them all.

HC: If you were a Disney Princess, who would you be and why?

Sleeping Beauty. Why? I am from Spain, we love “siestas.” That character seems like a perfect match for me.
