I'm a chilean guy of 22 years, i'm from Valparaiso, Chile. Now i'm studing politics in Science Po Rennes, en France. I like share, knows others cultures, new music, new stories, diferent points of views about the world, politics, religion and life. Discuss is a pleasure for me, share ideas and different thoughts. I like make many jokes even in serious conversations, sometimes too much, haha, for me the humor is very important in the life!

I try to change a little bite the world, i think that when the things are worst, is when we are needed more than ever. Beginig the change in our self, stop of critic so much the others and begin for see the bad things on my self, and after, try to change the world. I believe in the dialogue and the interchange of different points of view, we need to learn to do that urgently! I want to become in a writer, I'm trying to write my first stories. :)

"for every written page, you must read a hundred."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
