About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to understand people by exploring different cultures!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Montevideo, moved to Punta del Este at the age of 10. Lived there for 8 years and started living in Montevideo again from Sundays to Fridays due to my studies.

I became a DJ when I was 14, started up my own venture and worked in countries like Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina.

Started traveling around the world and knowing CouchSurfing when I was 19 and since then I couldn't stop.

I haven been in South America, Central America, North America, Europe, Middle East and East Asia.

I co-founded my own startup one year ago (hubinternacional.org) and think about traveling as a way of life.

Traveling keeps you openminded and fresh, looking for new opportunities while opening your heart.

I tell you all this about my "traveling passion" because you -couchsurfer- will probably know what am I talking about.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe tolerance it's the key to a peaceful where we all can be happy.
