Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
After six years at university, I feel the need to reconnect with all those things I took I hiatus from when I prioritized studying.
Whilst traveling is definitely one of the things I’m looking forward to, the way I see it now is not just about exploring a new country, but getting to know a place/culture by its people.
ABOUT ME
I was born in Buenos Aires and I lived here most of my life, except for three months in Amsterdam while i was working at the Anne Frank House, and a semester in Lund as an exchange student.
I studied Law at the University of Buenos Aires. I have a strong interest in technology, which led me to work for an E-Commerce/Fintech company named Mercado Libre, where I’ve been since 2016.
In my free time,I play guitar, ukelele, bass and a bit of piano and drums. I wouldn’t call myself a talented musician, but I really enjoy learning how to play stuff.
I also like sports, especially football, rugby and tennis. I try to go the gym or run at least three times a week, I consider fitness an important part of my weekly routine.
Like I wrote before, I love socializing with new people and learning about countries and cultures completely alien to me.
When I travel, I like to hopp on trains without a map or a destination and end up walking through off-the-beaten- path neighborhoods. I think that the best one can do is to get away from tourism and learn how life works in every town or city.
PHILOSOPHY
Life's too short to worry about it, enjoy every moment to fullest
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I lived in Amsterdam and Sweden when I was younger and I hosted couchsurfers in both places :)
In Argentina I’m a bit busy working so I might not be able to host people all the time but I offer: A nice tour through the city and, if the car is available, a ride! Also, you can join me if my team (Racing Club) plays in our stadium.

I've couchsurfed three times: in London, Lund and Bergen.

Music, Movies, and Books
music: I'll try, but you see. It's hard to explain. ;)
music plays an important part of my day to day. My taste varies from classical to electronic, indie and rock n roll.
Books: I could write a lot about what I like to read, but i'll stick to my top 3: To Kill a Mockingbird; 1984 and The Catcher in the Rye
Movies: Tarantino, marry me please.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share
As i've worked for 4 years at the Anne Frank House (in Buenos Aires and also in Amsterdam) i know a lot about Holocaust, nazism, Argentine dictatorships and human rights. Nowadays i'm really interested in law stuff because of my carreer.
I would love to share my knowledge with everyone and learn more about what you know and what you do.
