Overview
About Me
NOW TRAVELLING AROUND INDIA
I have travelled in 2014, eight months around Africa (Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, Tanzania, Uganda, Mozambique, Rwanda, Burundi, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Swaziland, Botswana, Zambia...) meeting a lot of amazing people from Couchsurfing.
Then, in 2019, I stayed 14 months travelling around Europe, Middle East and Central Asia (Afghanistan, Iran, Oman, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkey, Georgia...). I created a Twitter profile where I was doing threads about my travel: now I have more than 200K followers there. I wrote 2 books about my travels called "Crónicas Africanas" (African Chronichles) and "Periodistán" (Journalistan).
I became a TV host in Argentina after the travel through Central Asia and I have my TedX talk but I resigned because I wanted to travel again.
So, in February 2022, I started a new long trip around beautiful India.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love CS. I love meeting nice and warm people. I love learning and teaching new things. I love, most than anything in this world, feeling the wind in my face.
Interests
I prefer that my back hurts for carrying a backpack than for sitting in an office.
ALWAYS.
I love reading about the countriesI am going, trying to understand them: their people, their culture, their traiditions, their politics, etc. Always with a lot of respect.
