About Me

Dear travellers,

At the moment, I’m in Córdoba Capital, Argentina 🇦🇷 with my family, which includes my 23-year-old son and my 25-year-old daughter-in-law.

🏡 if you wish to stay at our house, I kindly recommend reading the section with the description of our home and its location.

🇦🇷 About Me 😎

I’m Claudia from Argentina. I’ve been living in India since November 2019, but currently, I’m back in my home country.

I’m a simple person who adapts easily to new places. I’m a Tourism Technician by profession and have worked in the field for many years. Currently, I’m focusing on tourism for people with disabilities. My mother tongue is Spanish, but I’m fluent in English and know a bit of French.

I have a deep love for nature. I hail from a small city called Ushuaia in southern Argentina, located on an island named Tierra del Fuego, the southernmost point of South America.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

🏡🧉 I am looking for a chance to dive into different cultures and people's stories. I think Couchsurfing is a good link between any traveller and the cultural roots or identity of the place you're visiting and its people.

Any tourist can visit a certain place and miss a lot of details by not interacting with local people and their daily lives. I am not travelling just to visit museums and sightseeing. I want an opportunity to share stories, meet new people, and learn a bit more about the history and language of every country I visit.

I'm here to find authentic experiences and hopefully make lifelong friends along with them, if possible.

Teach, Learn, Share

🎓 Teach and Learn: I consider myself an amateur in the kitchen, but I like to prepare typical Argentine dishes and others that I have learned on my travels. I am happy to share my knowledge and/or learn new skills. I am always looking forward to learning new languages and I can also teach some Spanish and English.

🎁 Share: I've travelled through a lot of different countries and I am more than happy to tell you all about my adventures. I can share tips and details if you are planning to visit any of the countries I've been to. I can share local knowledge of living in Argentina and India.

What I Can Share with Hosts

💬 I'm an avid storyteller with countless adventures to share, along with insights into our culture. I’m always happy to offer travel suggestions based on the countries I've visited.

🏠 I'm more than willing to help with cooking and any household chores, whether it's cleaning, organizing, decorating, or maintenance.

🌎 As a Technical in Tourism, I would be delighted to assist with your travel itinerary.
