About Me

I am a Free Software Developer, Open Data activist.
I do my best to fight opression, including the ones incur in.
I also like to design board games.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I'm on the road, it's all about people, not hotels; people, not restaurants; people, not shopping malls. As much as I can, I'd rather go meet people than anything else.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I crowdfunded a HackerBus for a Transparency movement. Then we hit the road aboard it. We spent weeks on it on the way to Montevideo. We hacked looms, videogames, tobogans. It's awesome.
