About Me

Hello! My name is Martin. I was borned in Argentina where I grow up and where I lived most of my life. Being Italian citizen as well, I left Buenos Aires to travel around Europe, the continent where my grandparents came from when they were my age. After a few months traveling I decided to stay in France where I lived for three years. Now, I'm living and traveling around Australia enjoying the opportunities
that the Working Holiday allows me while experiencing aussi life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like Couchsurfing because is a fantastic way to meet new people, specially, when you are traveling alone. I'm a courious person and when I travel to a new place I love to learn about the local way of living from the experience of people local people. Then, Couchserfing becomes an amazing tool to meet cool resident people who are open to share and to give another view than just what you can learn in a tour or in a museum.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy different kinds of music, it depends where and when I can prefer one style from another one, I love listening classical music, jazz, funk, disco, rock, salsa, cumbia, techno, etc.

I love watching movies and series. I have hundred of movies I have watched and I loved, but it will be so boring to try to write them all, I will just write a random list of some of the big classics I have watched: Citizen Kane, The Godfather, Modern Times, Taxi Driver, Star Wars, Seven Samurai, 12 Angry Men, The Dark Knight, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, GoodFellas, Fight Club, Schindler's List, The Matrix, Gladiator, The Silence of the Lambs, Back to the Future, The Lord of the Rings, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Apocalypse Now, The Shining, Inception, Seven, A Clockwork Orange, Full Metal Jacket, The Big Lebowski, Reservoir Dogs, Memento, 12 Monkeys, Requiem for a Dream, Trainspotting, Magnolia, The Pianist, etc, etc, etc...
On the other hand I had not watched so many series, so fortunately the list it will be shorter: Dexter, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, The Simpsons, Rick and Morty and the classics of the chilhood: Dragon Ball, Saint Seiya and Pokemon.

Books? Not too many after I finished the university. I have study philosophy so imagine I have read so much about Platon, Aristoteles, Kant, Nietzsche, Sartre, etc, etc, etc...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
