Hi! My name is Hans. I am a 29 years old, Argentinian/ German citizen based in Barcelona since 03/2021.
I will be working in an Eco Hotel in Slovenia from the 1st of June onwards. Therefore, I was hoping to get to know more about Slovenian culture from the inside, and I think there is no better way to do that, than with the right company.
I am a very sociable, very openminded, honest, adventorous, adaptable, I believe that I am also a funny person. Moreover, I really enjoy the good company and also the times by myself.
I am seeking for a new career path, since I have experienced 5 years working in HR (and other stuff too), I was hoping to find & atract other types of experiences more a like to me. I have played rugby for 22 years, but I have already retired. Now I am a outdoorsports fan (climbing and multi-day trekks can't be better!!), a music performer (I play de harmonica, mostly blues but in the continuous discovering) and I LOVE animals and I am always open to learn and do new stuff every day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am a very sociable person and when I travel somewhere, I like visiting the touristic places but I love exploring the not so much touristic surroundings and what I love most about these experiences is getting to know other's people 's culture, life philosophies and share ton of experiences... and some traditional dishes :). I think this type of travel always kind of make you grow in some way.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wake up every day

Teach, Learn, Share

It is a must for me to improve my English skills and always a pleasure to speak Portuguese or Spanish, so I would really like a language exchange.
If some of my work related or music knowledge could help I will be happy to share it. From learning the basics to play the harmonica to make handcraft beer :).

What I Can Share with Hosts

A fun language/ cultural exchange, a lot of laughs and some Argetinian empanadas maybe?
