First and most important thing, if you stay with me you must to go out with me.and dance salsa.

I arrived to New Zealand on October 2018 to do my work and holiday visa. At the beginning my plan was travel and see what happened but I found a job in Auckland at a really nice asian restaurant and stayed there working as chef for 6 months. After that time I did my lonely road trip around the north island and part of the south one, finally staying here in Queenstown for the last 7 months, since end of May.

Before New Zealand lived in Australia though and I spent most time in Tasmania, amazing place!

I'm a life-lover, adventurous and sociable guy looking for new personal experiences . I started this amazing trip with infinite desires to learn from all places and people I can meet. I love always laugh and enjoy with my friends and obviously it's much better if this is with some beers!!

Excellent partner for all aventures!!! Chef, Barista, Constructor, Dancer, Vegetarian, Cycling, Amateur Photographer.

Life philosophy.
Always smile, live everyday as if it were the first :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to learn about new cultures and know new places. Travel always was a big dream but now I wanna do it a new lifestyle. I think it is never too late to undertake new things. I wanna meet people and share with them all those travel stories and life experiences. I really sure we have too many things to tell each other.

I just wanna give a part of me to every different places and people who I'm knowing at each moment and each place gives me the best of itself.

Interests

Two things, I love dancing, love coffee. I dance 3 or 4 days per week. Parties, salsa classes, social clubs and home. And I drink coffee every morning and I can drink more than one per day. And now I would like to keep going learning about the coffee world and improve my skills as barista. And I love cooking as well! I really enjoy the time at the kitchen making some special food (veggie/vegan food) for my friends or my family. One of my biggest dreams is to complement each other and some day have my own cafe restaurant.

Also I like so much woodworking, I love the carpentry and I know about wood construction, geodesic domes and wood-furniture. I feel this like my professional area.

In my time off im going out to dance. I've been in salsa classes the last months after 15 years and it was so nice come back to dance like the old times. Also I usually go to anyplace for some hiking, enjoy the view, the nature, sitting with my ukulele (I'm learning about it) and take pictures. I'm really sure, all of us need this kind of connection with the pachamama. And another thing very important for me I'm a big, big, big bike lover (But I need a bike here in NZ) :c

Finally guys I wanna learn about new cultures, know people, learn another languages and make great, new a different friends but the most important, obviously travel around the world!!
