About Me

After: Currently living in Manly, Sydney. After finishing my trip, I decided to move to Sydney. Until July 2017 I wanted to change my life and decided to travel. I finished high school at 2008, since then I was working and studying very hard, and I found my life very common and wasn't happy with that type of life, so decided to start a new adventure. After finishing my University, I quit my job on December 2015, without caring what people would think about me and started to travel. I believe it was the best decision I done in my life. I left all behind, believing in my dreams, meeting new people, getting to know other cultures and Wonderfull places. I reckon I used to be narrow minded, and realize that is the problem of the world nowadays. We have to open our mind and accept and explore the world, but always with respect to each other and nature. Im a sociable person, who likes talking with people about every topic you can imagine. Friendly and easy going person who believes that human relations are the best thing we have, and also is the best way to know a country and its culture. A person can say more from a City than a building. Since then I have been in New Zealand and Australia, and a lot of countries of Asia. After one year, I decided it was time to come to Europe, so Im making my Eurotrip!

No acepto argentinos que vienen a trabajar. Solo viajeros

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I never used it in Asia or Australia, and everybody told me Wonderfull things about. During my first days in Europe I found people who were staying with couchsurfing, and I found hosts who were with them, and realize it could be a great way to discover a city. You can visit a city, do new friends, get to know the best tips and also experience like a local, the best combo! so why not!?

Before traveling, I have to admit I thought different. I thought it was a weird thing that people only used to save money and that it was dangerous. Maybe because of my Argentinian mind set, that everybody tells you to be careful with strangers, so I would have never thought about allowing somebody I don't know to my house. Now, I can tell you that I was wrong. Definitely, is an amazing tool, and Im looking forward to host people and show them my city.

Interests

I have a lot of interests. Im an open minded person, so my first interest is to learn something new, and thats you, what you like, how is your culture and share a good moment.
My first interest is music. I love music. I believe its my passion, even though I don't play any instrument. I love to talk and listen to music, learn about new music, and listen to live music.
Also like sports a lot. Sports Fan! If we can watch a sport, Im there! Want to start doing extreme sports, but I don't have the courage yet.
History is another hobby I have. I like to read about it and learn it. If you want to understand a country better, thats the way!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all type of music. When I go to a place, I like to learn about the music from there.
Books: I try to read a book from the place I visit when I can. My last books have being Into the wild, Into thin air, Freakonomics and Burmese days

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scuba Diving with Sharks.
Annapurna Circuit.
Climbing.
Learning to surf (im very bad on it!!)
Volunteer work in India.
Finished my studies, quit my job, and decided to change my life and travel. Must sound boring for you, but for me its the most amazing thing I did.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First of all, a very good moment. Im going to be 100% me, honest, I don't like fake people, so if I think different I will tell you, and will accept your point of view. The best way to learn more is from different point of views. If not life would be boring!
I can tell you that if you are friendly, for sure we are going to laugh, I like sarcasm, so don't be afraid of it. I take critics in a good way, to improve.
Like to cook, so I can show you some things Im good at cooking (especially meat and barbecue, remember Im from Argentina!)
Hope to do new friends, so also, after my home is your home, so if you go to my Country, you are obliged to stay at my home!
