About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to save the oceans lol :-)
Seriously, people, oceans are the most important thing for the health of our planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To connect with like-minded friends who practice sports. Love all kind of physical training. If you are an athlete I would like to share experiences.
Very low maintenance person who loves minimalism, simplicity, and at the same time loves sophistication and efficiency. Sounds like a contradiction? Not really. Look:
"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" Leonardo Da Vinci said.
BTW my ultimate dream is to get lost on a tropical island so I can use my survival skills.
Luxury = Vulgarity

Interests

Freediving. Gym. Boating. Sailing. Spearfishing. Calisthenics. Yoga. All kinds of sports.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Couchsurfing Brazilian friends that I had met during my several bus trips around remote parts of Brazil, at my grandmother's house in the center of Buenos Aires, from 1987 to 1995 - when internet didn't exist at all and Couchsurfing was just a wet dream at that time :-) Haha

Teach, Learn, Share

Trying to avoid mediocrity, stupidity, nonsense, and selfishness at all cost (just trying lol)
Insanity = Doing the same thing over and over again and expect different results
