Overview
About Me
First thing you need to know about me is that I´ve come to realize that I am a person who enjoys traveling more than anything in this world! Traveling gives me a sense of existence that can`t be compared to any other thing I have felt so far in life.
I would also have to say that I am a chatty. I love talking, discussing, debating, engaging in meaningful conversations and sharing my insights. I think I am pretty good at listening as well, mainly because I love learning from other people. I am always ready for a good talk and a good walk.
I love seeing places I´ve never seen. I always try to stay positive and seize every opportunity :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to get in touch with people from all over the world. I enjoy listening to people's anecdotes and stories. My goal is to improve and work on my English skills (I ve been a teacher for the last few years) But also I would like to have the opportunity of enriching myself with different perspectives, different points of view and new cultures.
"No man is a island", recites a famous poem. We need each other to learn and to be better.
Interests
* Animals ( cats, dogs, all kinds of them). Rescuing them and finding forever families for them. Talking about them. Contemplating them if they are around. Playing with them. I currently have 3 cats and they are beyond awesome.
* Languages! ( English mostly)
* Music, can't live without it. In fact, I enjoy going to karaoke pubs once in a while.
* Plants. Nature. Seeing green makes me happy.
* Balconies. I have an obsession with them. I am always checking how people decorate them or if they fill them with plants.
* Movies and TV series! (my favourites of all times: Friends, HIMY, The Office, Game of Thrones, This is Us, and the list goes on and on.)
* Engaging in deep, meaningful conversations.
* Painting, decorating, finding ways to improve a space.
* Teaching :) Nothing beats the feeling of teaching. I am in my element.
I have tons more!!!
Music, Movies, and Books
In fact, I have a wide variety of tastes and I love analyzing songs lyrics but among my favourite bands and singers I would have to mention: The Beatles, Pearl Jam, Pink Floyd, Oasis, The Cure, The Smiths, Radiohead, Edith Piaf, Ella Fitzgerald and the list can go on and on!
My favourite writer is Julio Cortázar. :)
Teach, Learn, Share
*I don't usually cook for mysellf but I know some delicious traditional Argentinean recipees. My mum is one hell of a cook and she has taught me many of them.
*I am an English teacher and I really enjoy teaching English. So, if you need to reinforce some English grammar or simply practise conversation , I would be more than glad to help.
