Greetings! I'm Felipe. At the best of times good enough with words that I can ease my way out of trouble with a roguish grin. Usually, though, I’m more of a potato-cat, struggling to stay awake, and frantically grasping for and rearranging words from the chaotic, jumbled-up mess I have for a mind. I have a passion for stories in any media, whether they are in the shape of short stories, novels, movies, TV series, songs, videogames, etc. I've been a teacher for the last 6 years and am currently job hunting in Melbourne, Australia.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I heard about this platform from a friend in 2018 and haven't stopped since. I feel like its best feature is that you may actually get to spend time together with the people you're staying with, as opposed to some other websites/apps.

Just in case, I'd like to make it clear that I'm NOT looking for sex. I don't see Couchsurfing as a dating app and, as far as I'm concerned, it isn't.

Música, películas y libros

I enjoy reading fantasy books, for the most part. Some of my favourite books include 'The Name of the Wind', 'The Wise Man's Fear', 'The Wheel of Time' series, the 'Mistborn' series, pretty much anything by Neil Gaiman, and 'The Witcher' series, among others. I also enjoy jazz music (I attended concerts by Pat Metheny and Herbie Hancock last year), and some metal and rock. A good deal of my favourite movies include japanese animation, such as 'Spirited Away', 'Howl's Moving Castle', 'Paprika', and 'Your Name'.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Stayed at a haunted house in rural Chiloé Island for nearly a month.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I know about storytelling, English, and Spanish. I know about my country, and bits and pieces about the neighbouring countries I’ve visited. I could teach you about that.

I’d like to learn about you: what you like or dislike, what worries you, what gives you joy, what the first note of the music that moves you is...

I’d like to learn about your city: tell me about its hidden places. Tell me about its people. Tell me about its history. Tell me about the best place to eat cake or ice cream or both.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I'm up for hanging out and talking about life in my country, and South America. I might be able to host people in Santiago de Chile every now and then.
