Hi there, I don't like labels, but I'm a biologist. My passion is the ocean, conservation, free-diving and whales. I am proactive. I am extrovert. I enjoy writing and communicating, I do stand up comedy about science !

I love to talk about important matters like the meaning of life, passion and career pursuits but also dance reggaeton or electronic music 🤪

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To see the places I visit in the eyes of a local
To exchange cultures and beat capitalism by returning to trading 🤪

After a lot of disappointment in my stay in Italy with CS and very weird requests,messages and GIRLS telling me the positive review they left it was not a real positive experience😡, to host girls in my hometown who need a safe and comfortable place to stay 🙏🏼

*Please show you read my profile but saying HOLA MARRU when introducing yourself :) * and one thing you liked about it

Interests

Searching for the meaning of life hahaha

Photography, philosophy, nature, communication, birdwatching

I'm argentinean but PLEASE don't say "Boca o River?" There will be no friendship 🥹, I'm interested in deep, profound, meaningful talks and connections 🙏🏽 if that's all you can think when Argentina comes to your mind... Well... We are not meant to meet .. I don't even like/care about football maybe only about what Eduardo Galeano can say about chasing the ball...
(But I am proud that we won the world cup, culture and patriotic things are complex 🤪)

Alsooo, just looking for new friends, already in a committed relationship, think about that when offering stay😉***GIRLS please don't leave positive reviews if you felt uncomfortable with a guy at his house... Think about the next girl arriving or reading the reviews when writing them ✊🏼

I'm not open minded so don't offer me to stay at your home naked 🤨

I'm a feminist by the way, that should scare you out too🤪

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: very weird:
I don't like rock, neither argentinean rock which is very famous
I can go from Eminem to Ricardo Arjona to Elvis to Carol G to dubstep that sound like transformers having sex without any warning 🤪
But I love to dance dancehall (of course you don't know what it is, so we can just dance bachata/salsa/reggaeton/electronic music if that's all there exists 🤪)
I am a great co-pilot btw 🧉

Movies:
Life of Pi
Matrix
Any Disney movie 🤪

Books:
The nature of happiness - Desmond Morris
The naked monkey - Desmond Morris
El Libro de los Abrazos - Eduardo Galeano
Cien cepilladas antes de dormir - Melissa P.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been in Antarctica! Polar plunge 🧊🥶❄️

Moved from my home country to live in Mexico✨

Swam with hundreds of mobula rays, Giant Manta rays

Dived with sharks, sea lions, whale sharks

Pet a whale💗😘🐳

🚲 300 km along Uruguayan coast (when I was young and reckless 🤪) now I just dive with sharks 😅

Stand up comedy about science 🔭🎤

Work as a waitress having a Master's degree to fulfill my dream of seeing Italy, the origin country of my grandfather 🫰🏼✅
➡️go to meet my distance italian relatives in a small Italian little town in an island 🏝️ (Uras-Sardinia)✅

Challenge myself to grow by moving out of my comfort zones several times, spending time alone, doing the effort it requires to work on ourselves instead of letting life pass by with all the tempting easy distractions ✅🤫

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know how to cook but I can provide mate 🧉, which you'll never regret
I am also very intense with emotions when I enjoy something I'm passionate about I think it's contagious
I can explain why sharks are not really that dangerous 🤨
I can teach you diving (?
Language exchange
If none of these is good I can buy you a beer or a souvenir

Learn: other careers, passions, social studies, how you avoid depression , you know , whatever you feel it's worth teaching 🤪
