Overview
About Me
**Men only, because I have a girlfriend** Sorry girls, and thank you for your comprehension.
Good news: I always reply in the same or next day your requests.
The bad news: I never accept copy and paste requests.
Please send me a request: I don't have time to deal with messages.
To consider your request the following requirements must be fullfilled:
1) A complete profile with photos
2) Three references as a host
3) At least 85% of request replies.
4) Make a request (usually I don't reply messages requesting a couch)
HINT: Read all my profile
If you don't have any of the requisites you can explain me why .
CURRENT MISSION
Each day I feel more latinamerican.
ABOUT ME
I am very happy and complete. I made a drastic change in my life, renouncing a safe life and income, taking a risk to make my dream come true. After some time, I'm sure that my decision was correct. I received Christ on my hearth, which changed my whole life.
PHILOSOPHY
God is my boss.
To live and let be.
The best things in life are unexpected.
You get what you give = Todo lo que haces se te devuelve
I speak fluently English, French and German, Portuguese and of course Spanish. If your native language is English, German, French or Portuguese, I only want to talk in your language :).
If you are averse to religious people I think we'll not have a good time together.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
My experience in Couchsurfing is extremelly positive. I've been able to make many new friends, which I still have contact with them.
Couchsurfing allows to make new friends and to unify the world. It's a jewel of Internet.
I love to host. It's a special time to me when I talk with travellers from any part of the world.
Interests
Politics, sports, culture, history, martial arts, archery, religion, trekking, nature, hiking, dancing (folklore) and learn foreign languages, my current passion.
Now my life has changed and I'm a strong Catholic believer. Don't worry I don't impose nothing to anybody.
I also play "The Settlers of Catan". A lovely game. I'm a good chess player and I love go-baduk-weichi also.
Lately I have updated my PC, so I have started again to play PC games: strategy, FPS and RTS and adventure.
To consider your request please write me in English, French, German or Portuguese if it's your native language. It must be a formal request, otherwise I'll just ignore your message. If you're German, Austrian or Swiss (unless you came from the French or Italian Swiss) write me in Hochdeutsch. I have a good level to read in any of the languages I mentioned. My lowest level in a foreign language is German, in which I have a B1 level.
Explain me why we will have a great time together and what interests we have in common.
A craftwork, music or book from your country would be a great souvernir from your part, if you are not a student (I remember when I was a student, and students are always in a tight budget).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
You are not going to believe me:
In front of my house, in 2003, at 2 o'clock in the morning, in front of the entrance, door, we saw with my friends, a tiny light, like a ray, which dissapears in front of all of us. We all see it, so It was not my imagination. After that, we simple shrink our shoulders and I enter my house.
I was onboard on one of the most expensives yachts of the world.
I met a veteran of the Second World War at work in 2011.
Life is so fragile, I have an extremely sad tale to share.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach and share: strategies to learn another lenguage.
I want to meet people to practice portuguese in a regular basis and it doesn't matter if you are not a native speaker.
If you speak Spanish visit my webpage where I share my strategy to learn any foreing language without expensive lessons or the need to travel:
www.clubdeidiomas.cl, it's in Spanish only.
What I Can Share with Hosts
If I made a request to host, that means I've choose you with care. I search people with similar interests of mine. Also I prefer people of my age, because we are in the same period of the live.
It's not the same when I host, because sometimes young travellers have many interesting histories.
I love to talk with my hosts, going at least to a traditional pub/restaurant of the zone.
I love cook, I can prepare a typical chilean meal, but beware: chilean cuisine is not sophisticated. But I really love it.
Countries I’ve Visited
Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Ecuador, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Peru, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa, Switzerland, United Kingdom
Countries I’ve Lived In
