About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To Create Happyness

ABOUT ME

Hola! I'm Gabo, tour guide, freelance writer, theatre actor, rock and reggae bands manager and an accountant. As you can see, I love to change constantly, try new things, create, observe, think (why not?), fly, read, stare at other peoples eyes and last but not least, I'm a hardcore traveler. I've been to more than 70 countries in 4 continents, but africa and antartica still waiting for me!
I was born in Buenos Aires and lived there almost all my life, except between 2011 and 2012 that I lived in New Zealand for a year, working to save money to travel around the world in 2013. At the moment, I'm writing a book about my travel experiences called "The Factory of Smiles" and you are welcome to read what I have so far but you must understand spanish until I dare to translate it to english! haha
I like to stay inside many different cultures and learn about them. I am sociable, talkative, tidy, clean, friendly and interested in lots of different things. People who share the same values as I do are more than welcome to my place in Buenos Aires!!!

PHILOSOPHY

To understand other philosophies.
