About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Save the world from earth-eating-human-shaped-creatures...

ABOUT ME

They'd say that I always go around with a guitar. And that I'm always doing a lot of things everywere... travelling around, going out with friends or inventing a new project. I hope they'd say that I'm a good guy and I'm very open to make new friends and accept any interesting invitations.

PHILOSOPHY

I like enjoying my life in an easy way. I don't need many things to be happy. I don't like money and consumerism. I give more importance to being happy and having good friends...

I think people sometimes are too worried about useless things and forget to enjoy the really important things of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have no experience at the moment. I've only heard of friends that do CouchSurfing, and I'm trying to introduce myself to this new world of fun people!

Interests

I'm a designer and a musician. I work in design, but I try to do a lot of music in my free time. As a designer I'm very interested in social and ecological oriented design, more than super sophisticated or expensive things. I like talking about problems in the world and try to imagine a solution to these problems. Beside that, I also enjoy very much hanging out with friends, and going to hear some live concerts. And I like participating in interesting groups or activities.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: 60's and 70's for sure... Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Doors, Pink Floyd, and many more... a lot of Blues and Rock and Roll.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I was bored of all the "static" holiday propositions of my friends and I decided to make a trip on my own. I took my guitar, a backpack and a tent, went to Puerto Montt in Chile and crossed on foot to Argentina to arrive to El Bolson, and I made a one month trip in Patagonia on my own. It was amazing! And I met a lot of nice people on the road...

Another funny thing I did once when I was studying was that there was a concert of an "almost famous" blues band in the university. Me and a friend arrived with our guitars before them and started playing without asking to anyone. After that of course they did their concert, and in the end they invited us to play all together... it was also a great experience =).
