Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Enhance my senses. Read between lines. Understand how to turn casual into causal.
Nature gives us signs of how to be happy. We just have to know how to see them.
ABOUT ME
I am very curious, which led me to be an intergalactic explorer: I love traveling in time and to other worlds. And I discovered that I do not need a time machine or a spaceship because there are incredible places in this same planet.
In places like this, time is relative. We lose references and immerse ourselves in a different era. We connect with their past and stories.
Therefore, if you want to travel in time, take a route, a boat or an airplane. You can go to the past or the future, how many years you want, simply by choosing different destinations. Isn´t it fantastic?
And here comes the most crazy: to know new worlds. How? Meeting people. Sharing time and experiences, as simple as that. Greet someone with a smile on the street or when entering a business: it's like landing on the moon the Apollo 11. The doors open to an unknown world. And the best thing is that there are as many worlds as there are people on Earth.
We believe that we know places and people because we see them, but as we already know, the essential is invisible to the eyes.
I want to share this enthusiasm with many people.
PHILOSOPHY
As Cnel. Chris Hadfield said in his book An astronaut´s guide to life on Earth: "Nerver leave the Earth without your Swiss knife."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I´d like to share ideas about life with people from other cultures and find out how do we feel for the same things. I´d like to learn how to see things from a different perspective.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I´m starting my way at the same time I travel. I need to start somehow!
Interests
I love sports. I am a very active person. I´d rather be playing football than playstation. I´m a great fun of footbal (soccer), rugby, tennis, golf, sailing, motorsports. I love beeing outside, in the nature... Camping, hicking, fishing. Architecture is an interest in terms of how it solves things to people. Not for the buildings themselves. Public space is the key! We all belong to it and it belongs to everyone.

Music, Movies, and Books
I can think of a few movies: fight club, dead poets society, amelie and babel (i understood picture and music in a movie) My favourite book is the little prince and enjoyed the celestine prophecy. I like to read short stories about football played in the "barrios de buenos aires" and biographies. Music: JAF (rock, Argentina), El cuerteto de nos (rock, Uruguay), Los Estelares (rock, Argentina), Pink Floyd, The killers and Tribalistas (Brazil). And any live music as long as it is veeery loud! Favourite trees: jacaranda, aguaribay, palo borracho.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing that has ever happened to me was my brother, Jose. We are identical twins and we get on very well.
Teach, Learn, Share
Lately, I think I'm the best at sharing. I would say that I am not an expert in anything, but I am very didactic. I can make other people understand and learn things. I can be a good tennis and golf partner, I am not a good soccer player, but I will run to the death. Do not count on me for playstation... yet. I'm working on it! Someone to teach me? Pocker: too rational ... I get bored and rarely lose.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I am very easy going and get along very well with anyone. I am very respectful and will do my best to honor my host´s open heart. Count on me for anything that comes up for sharing your place with me. I travel light and like to keep things in place and tidy.
