I'm a mechanical engineer, passionate about music and philosophy.

I can play the bass guitar, the cuatro llanero and a little bit of guitar.

Love to work with recycled material, design, write, bikes, physics, sports (currently making my way with calisthenics), dancing (mostly salsa) and open source software.

Have acted on a couple of plays, lived as street musician, took a couple of Vipassana meditation courses,...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to know different cultures and share points of view. Learn about other ways of living, and to see the world as a resident, more than a tourist

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know if that would be called amazing, but I was involved in the creation of a performance group, where we denounce venezuelan politics through comedy. We made our own librettos, music and props, and even act. The best part is that we have a multicultural group, with different points of view and different professions
