Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
My mission? Humm to enjoy every second I can, and maybe ... to change the world? if it just were possible....
ABOUT ME
I am a quite easygoing person who enjoys everything except doing homework... I just love traveling around, wherever, from virgin beaches to glacier topped mountains, small towns or supercrowded cities. I love reading a good book while on the public transport, music (from classic to electro), a good cold beer in the kitchen after getting home form uni, as well as a good party, bar, or club.I am easy to deal with, i love to discuss about several topics and "exchange points of view" ... the fact that I am sometimes critical about something does NOT imply that i don't like it or really enjoy it, as some say "Defects are what make things perfectly unique".
I don´t like intolerant, racist or homofobe people. So everyone who would not have a problem sharing the flat with gay, lesbian, multiethnic, multicultural, multi-whatever is welcome...
Since the first time I traveled by myself (to Russia) I just loved it and became kind of an adict. I've been several times traveling through Europe, USA, Canada, Mexico and Southamerica, both with a couple of friends or just by myself, every single time i enjoyed it and learned a lot from the people I met...My biggest problem is to decide where to go, I soon picture my self in the Amazonas, Andes, Kilimanjaro, Papua, the Gobi dessert, Samarkand or Timbouktu ... I hope that one of them will become true in a short time :P ...
PHILOSOPHY
Hedonism? nah, just a bit... Enjoy, but share... The more I enjoy something the more I want to share it with someone else...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've had the opportunity to show some friends my country and it was the most fulfilling experience to drag them deeply into the sounds, the culture, the taste and to make them feel the heartbeat of the land. I experienced something similar in Russia, when you get to know the locals is when real fun begins, when you get rid of prejudice and throw away the "guidebook", when the taxi driver invites you for a shot of vodka, or the woman in the market tells you to go to place which is beautiful and non touristic.
I think that by doing couch surfing people can get to know way better the place they visit, instead of staying in a hotel full of tourists, they get to see how's the real life in the city, the places to go out, the places to eat, the tricks and hidden places...
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Well I am actually always hosting friends and random people i have met while traveling, my biggest problem is that when i am not out of town there is always someone sleeping at my couch :P Just in one year i hosted around 20 people, many of them even have repeated the visit or stayed for long periods...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Sharing... One of the things that gives me the biggest pleasure is to share, a chocolate, drink, delicious food, good time, memories, knowledge, experiences, points of view, jokes, everything...
Teach, Learn, Share
I think every one is worth learning from. They don't need to be a top scientist, businessman or philosopher. The persons i have learned most from didn't even go to primary school, just talk with a 4 year old kid and you'll be amazed how much he can teach you...
Now, getting less philosophical... I can teach spanish, explain many things to you from math, history, the culture of my country, and tons of really unuseful stuff (you may be surprised, but math is not completely in this last category).
